Our 3rd session (actual 2nd) for MBA Sentrep - not the typical MBA class

We opened the class with you tubes rendition of Tanging Yaman.

We did the following:

l. Lecture on introduction to entrepreneurship (from this blog and slideshare link) What were emphasized:   creating something new, innovation, new products, it is magic (from Walt Disney - Larry Farrel. It is creating something from practicality nothing.

2. At the mention of creating products, we did a re invention/redesign of the school id on a paired discussion. The mock up and the new id concept will be presented by next Tuesday, December l8. (Athens proposed a mini Christmas party)

3. Then we did a mind mapping of three concepts:   entrepreneurship, innovation, creativity. For most, it is their first encounter of mind maps.

4. The last part was the application of 3R from green innovation:   reuse, recycle, reduce. How to create new product/or product from the waste/trash at 4f of AGSB Salcedo. And they were able in 45 minutes able to come up with new notable products. The product prototypes were the actualization of mind maps.

We said entrepreneurship is not a spectators sports; it is about taking action and creating new products/services. And we did just that.

Second Session for Sentrep at HV de la Costa Campus

                                    Group members conversing for the debate next week

Despite the typhon last Sunday, the cancellation of classes in other classes, as they say in show biz, the show must go on, classes at AGSB went on. It is difficult to make up for lost class hours;   because of tight schedules. Students are unwilling to undertake make ups.

What did we do:

l. The new id. Students were grouped in pairs and to analyze:

     the present use and function of IDs

     new functions and design of IDs.

2. Conversation mapping for various topics:

     innovation

     creative imitation

     invention

     entrepreneurship

    creativity.

I brought colored cartolina, pens and crayons to stimulate creative thinking

3. Inspirational video presentation by Catherine, Martha, Ana, Mariko, Hannah, and Marty

All in all, it was a great session. We were not able to finish the three way debate on: Entreps are born, made or accidental. However, we have the rules all ready set for the next meeting

Next week: we have the illegal activity project, and the debate plus the continuation of inspirational video presentation. The mock up submission of new ID is deferred for week after.
