My experience with Entrepreneur
I have used Entrepreneur for over nine years with my introduction to entrepreneurship students. I enjoy the opportunity to allow students to see what it is like to run a small business. Since the simulation is used in an introduction course, it gives students foundational knowledge on what goes into running a business. Students can also refer back to what they learned using Entrepreneur when they develop their own business plan in the small business management course. Over the years, the most common statement from students, “wow, it opened my eyes on how much goes into running a business.” Since my course is only offered online, it helps students learn how to work on a virtual team which has become vital skill over the last year.
