Seminar Assignments Social Entrepreneurship for Local Change Spring 2020
Course Elements
The CLLC programme consists the following elements:
- The international online course with synchronous online sessions on Tuesdays from 16 00 – 17 30 CET and additional tutored online sessions. Our class meets weekly from March 17 to June 9, 2020
- A cooperation process with a local community which can be either
- a community attached to your local university environment
- or a community you visit during one of our Intensive Study Programmes (i.e. Romania, Estonia or Jordan). Our IPs are currently on halt since we need to wait for the development of the travel restrictions. Regardless of traveling or not, students can take the case study areas of the intensive programmes as study cases for the online course.
The online course aims at preparing and accompanying students who are involved in designing community-based innovation ideas. The synchronous lectures on Tuesdays will provide you with theory and methods associated with core topics such as community – what they are and how to work with them, innovation, transformation, systems thinking, design thinking, business modelling and impact evaluation, to name only the most relevant.
The tutored online sessions provide room for you and your teams to engage with those theories and methods. We can apply them to the specific community context you are dealing with, either in your workshop areas or in your local university context. In addition, you can collaborate with students from our international CLLC network and learn from their perspectives on your issues and ideas.
Course Assignments
The CLLC programme has five compulsory assignments. All assignments require your active participation in the tutored online classes and/or on site in your community lab. In addition, critical engagement with CLLC theories and methods is necessary.
