Result of the process


Nordic Entrepreneurship 2007


Assignment

• After this course you should write a personal reflective report, which contains your reflections about what has happened. These reflections can be about discussions within the group, your own thoughts about Nordic and social entrepreneurship, your thoughts about how your group was functioning, reflections about how new ideas suddenly emerge in your head.


Thoughts from one of the studentsI think that this course is one of the best I have been on for anumber of reasons; but I suppose first and foremost I have learnt so much about how I learn and what works best for me, which I did not expect to and probably learnt more than I bargained for. I found that the best way for me to learn is to read some theory in front of a course and then practise “learning by doing”, our group worked grate together, it was easy to coordinate our group works, everyone was very interested to work and we had a good drive for all the assignments. I think this course had a very good variation of lectures, practical group work, external lectures and excursions, the week was so very intense but still it manage to keep us focused and there was not a single boring minute.
