Course Content

This course aims at facilitating students in experiencing, exploring,
discovering and ‘reporting’ about entrepreneurship as a real-life and
dynamic phenomenon and as an on-going process. Likewise, your ability to
look, think, and report in a ‘visual’ way will be stimulated. In this
course, we break with linear conceptualizations of entrepreneuring as a
‘neat’, straight road to success, a correct execution of a sound plan,
based on a good idea, a well-spotted opportunity, or other such dominant
(abstract) ideas. Instead, we are going to play with other, perhaps not
so common ideas about entrepreneurship. During this course, you (in
pairs) create a (short) film about entrepreneurship so as to ‘activate’
your own curiosity, and to – visually – communicate your ideas and
perspectives.
