4ArtPreneur – Innovative thinking competences for Creative Art entrepreneurship
Ref: 2020-1-ES01-KA203-081947
Under this project EUC participates as leader of Output 1. The Systems Dynamics Course with a team of 6 researchers, under the coordination of Associate Prof. Dr. Simona Mihai-Yiannaki. Our project’s researchers are: Prof. George Papageorgiou, Assistant prof. Despina Varnava- Marouchou from the School of Business Administration and Associate Prof. Sophia Hadjipapa- Gee, Associate Prof. Tasos Anastasiades and Lecturer Demetra Englezou from the School of Humanities, Social and Education Sciences – Department of Arts.
The project will create an open-access online course on entrepreneurship addressed to creative arts faculties to train students and teachers in the acquisition and validation of entrepreneurial skills adapted to their specific needs.
The partnership will develop the following outputs:
- An innovative methodology supported by SYSTEM DYNAMICS, the study and analysis of dynamic feedback systems using computer simulation.
- A modular ENTREPRENEURSHIP CURRICULUM. The curriculum’s teaching & learning materials will be embedded into the system dynamics models that simulate the business cases/topics.
- The adaptation & improvement of an Eportfolio so that creative arts students can collect and show evidence of their entrepreneurial skills to confront future investment prospects.
Through this innovative methodology and tools, students will learn how to analyze complex systems, increase their entrepreneurial skills and be supported in the creation of their own businesses. Teachers will be supported in their professional development and institutions in cultural/artistic education will be able to make their creative arts degrees more permeable to entrepreneurial skills.
