UYGULAMALI GİRİŞİMCİLİK EĞİTİMİNDE BAŞARILI GİRİŞİMCİLERİN KATILIMININ GİRİŞİM NİYETİ ÜZERİNDEKİ ETKİSİ

Teorik, oyun temelli ve mentor destekli olarak tasarlanan uygulamalı girişimcilik programı öğrencilerin algılanan davranış kontrolü, girişimcilik niyeti ve girişimcilik bilgi ve becerileri üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmek üzere 13’er haftadan iki dönem uygulanmıştır. Analizlerde eşleşen ön test-son test verileri kullanılmıştır. Programın girişimcilik niyetinde bir artışa yol açmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Ancak, bu yönlerin daha sürdürülebilir gelişimi için güçlü bir potansiyel taşıdıkları bulunmuştur. Program, yerel girişimcilik ekosistemine sağladığı katkı açısından bir ilk olarak hayata geçirilmiştir. Programın amacı; programın maliyetli bir özelliği olan girişimcilerin katılımının, katılımcılarda girişimcilik niyetlerini geliştirmede gerçekten bir fark yaratıp yaratmadığını öğrenmek olarak kendi yapısını sorgulamaktır. Çalışmanın bir başka benzersiz yönü de programın akademik, ticari ve kar amacı gütmeyen alanlardan aktörleri işbirliği yapmak üzere bir araya getirmesidir.

THE EFFECT OF THE PARTICIPATION OF SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURS ON ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENT IN APPLIED ENTREPRENEURSHIP EDUCATION,

An applied entrepreneurship program was designed as theoretical, game-based and mentor supported for 13-week was implemented twice; to assess its effects on students’ perceived behavioral control, entrepreneurial intention, knowledge and skills. The matching pretest-posttest data were used in the analyses. The program was not found to lead to an increase in entrepreneurial intention. However, they were found to bear a strong potential for more sustainable development of these aspects. The program was implemented as a first in terms of its contribution to the local entrepreneurial ecosystem. The aim of the program was to question its own structure; that is, to find out if the participation of entrepreneurs – a costly feature of the program – really does make a difference in fostering entrepreneurial intentions in the participants. Another unique aspect of the study is that the program brought together actors from academic, business and non-profit fields to collaborate.
