Project Summary

“Train and Teach Entrepreneurial Spirit”. This project is focused on the teachers’ training to help students to change their mindset in the objective of being successful and creative in their job and feel well in their life. In this project, the training of group work is more intensive than we did in earlier projects.
Our targets was the Educational world and the Business world as we have the willingness to work with teachers, Young enterprise associations and entrepreneurs. The aim was to exchange about good practices in entrepreneurship at school, speak in English for the communication, and learn some French and German, to know more about the culture of each other. We wanted to create together pedagogical entrepreneurial modules in each of our schools, base don the Business Model Canvas (BMC). We decided as the project moved on to put it on a website called «Modular toolkit for entrepreneurship» On this web we presented the different modules of the BMC using youtube videos, our own presentations, pictures, movies made in the project, our E-book with glossary and everyday together with text and illustrations.
To ensure success and sustainability in our project, we design an action plan like this :
– We planned 5 teachers and students training motilities one in each country, Up to 8 teachers and 16 students of each country will be involved in the motilities.
– We had 4 Transnational meetings, in Belgium, France, Germany, Norway to discuss about the pedagogical modules and prepare, evaluate and assess the students’ mobilities.
To conclude, through this project, we strengthen our links with European partners (schools and firms), Young enterprise associations universities and entrepreneurs.
We instill a new dynamic in the courses in our schools to prepare our students the best we can in the secondary school to go up in the Higher education and to adapt entrepreneurial skills and competences that they can use in their future.
