Sturgeon’s Law?
• Do you want to be:
• Above-average?
• Top 10%?
• Top 1%?• Are you sure?

Copernicus Redux?
• Who invented kindergarten?
• A Copernican revolution

Three Revolutions?
• Converging today….
How do humans actually learn important stuff?
Practitioners leading the way
Online/blended tools
…and a 4th: moving from Novice to Expert
(don’t you want to create experts? Don’t you want to BE an expert?)
![Page 7: Coneeect keynote final july 23](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061104/541483578d7f72486c8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Experts’ Obsessions
• Obsess over developing a truly entrepreneurial mindset– Not “stuff”– Not “skills”– Business models NOT plans
• Obsess over deep co-immersion with the entrepreneurial community (a/k/a “Ecosystem”)
![Page 8: Coneeect keynote final july 23](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061104/541483578d7f72486c8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What drives great things in…
• Startup Weekend, Lean Launchpad, TechStars?• exactly this
• Best technology commercialization programs? exactly this
• The most successful entrepreneurial ecosystems? (e.g. Boulder or SV)
• exactly this
• The A++ Entrepreneurship Programs exactly this
![Page 9: Coneeect keynote final july 23](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061104/541483578d7f72486c8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What the best programs do…
• 1. Focus on mindset.. but not as buzzword• 2. Connecting students to ecosystem• 3. Connecting ourselves even more deeply• 4. And make connections two-way
• “Engagement” –> Immersion
• Immersion -> CO-immersion!
• ACTION!

Consider “lean startup”
• Validate biz model… sure, but also..• Change mindset at a deep level
• Startup Weekend, TechStars– Full immersion
• Peer support• Personal reflection
– Co-Immersion with ecosystem• Expert mentors• Ecosystem feedback
– Who & what is guiding all this?– And how do we do this… online?
![Page 12: Coneeect keynote final july 23](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061104/541483578d7f72486c8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Sorry… there’s homework
• For now…
• When you think about the entrepreneurial mindset – not skills, not info… Think DEEPER. How would you know someone had a more expert mindset?
• What is different specifically? What are YOU facilitating in your class or activity? (pick one)
![Page 13: Coneeect keynote final july 23](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061104/541483578d7f72486c8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
WB Yeats
“Learning is not about filling a pail;
it’s about lighting a fire.”
(but where does the spark come from?)
![Page 14: Coneeect keynote final july 23](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061104/541483578d7f72486c8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Two Ways to Learn
• Behavioristic• - fill the bucket
• -define the buckets•
• Constructivistic• - light the fire (or fan it!)
• - assume knowledge structures evolve
• (often discontinuously)
![Page 15: Coneeect keynote final july 23](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061104/541483578d7f72486c8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Learners create their own buckets…
– through…
• personal reflection,
• peer mentoring,
• expert mentoring
• ….based on authentic questions
• “Experience is not what happens to you, it is what you do with what happens.”
-Epictetus

Accelerating Learning
• Problem-Based Learning (“authentic” questions)
• Two overlapping themes:• IMMERSION – Action before thinking• MENTORING – Learn the right lessons
– Expert mentors [and I do mean expert]– Peer mentors
– Or THREE? Supportive ecosystem?– Social infrastructure; cognitive infrastructure– http://bit/ly/EcoSys

MORE homework
• Remember that one change that contributes to a more entrepreneurial mindset – what’s different?
• What CDE would YOU give learners the
opportunity to make that change?
• (You will never guess what I want to do this afternoon…. )

So what IS this “entrepreneurial mindset” anyway??
• Crowdsourced list• Thoughts? Which are the hardest to change?
– (More important for here... what can we measure?)
Seeing opportunities, yes, but…• Seeing self as entrepreneur (role identity)• Strategic thinking• Dot-connecting / pattern recognition• Effectual thinking (bricolage, improv)• Optimist (attributional)• Metacognition• Counterfactual thinking• Bias for action (vs. FoF!)• Value creation as sine qua non (Market-pull?)
