• Search for relevant information
• Seek “customer” input/perspective
• Synthesize and apply relevant information
• Reflect and articulate
• Experiential• Problem-Based • Peer-to-Peer• Self-Directed

Entrepreneurial Learning
Problem-Based Learning• Student Centered• Occurs in Small Groups • Teacher as Facilitator • Problems are Introduced Early• Problems Stimulate Problem-Solving Skills• New Knowledge is Obtained

Ill-Structured Problems • Require more information for understanding the
problem than is initially available• Contain multiple solution paths• Change as new information is obtained• Prevent students from knowing they have made the
“right” decision• Generate interest and controversy and cause the
learner to ask questions• Are open-ended and complex enough to require
collaboration and thinking beyond recall
• Experiential• Problem-Based • Peer-to-Peer• Self-Directed
