NON-LINEAR LEARNING EDUCATION FOR PRACTITIONER SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURS: TOWARD A NEW PARADIGM

Abstract

Education for social entrepreneurs generally follows a pre-determined linear design based upon academic assumptions and traditional approaches. For practitioner social entrepreneurs non-linear, self determined learning journeys afford learners opportunity to develop the skills, knowledge and competencies in self-defined context-rich learning environments. This paper presents an approach to practitioner entrepreneurship education that is learner centric, where learning is based upon the demands stimulated by previously learnt knowledge in order to develop self-determined levels of mastery in the creation and development of social enterprise.
