| Résumé : |
In business schools, learning is traditionally considered to be a linear and incremental process: once basic notions are mastered, students are asked to further develop their knowledge and specific expertise. This approach is relevant in many programmes, but cannot be considered as such at the start of an entrepreneurship course. At such a stage, the most urgent and key stake is to first unlearn. Previously acquired knowledge is not necessarily obsolete but it limits the scope of opportunities, often restricting entrepreneurs to inadequate reasoning and decision-making. To unlearn, that is to say discard some past knowledge, beliefs and routines to develop new heuristics and behaviour, the pedagogical approach must not only break away from traditional pedagogical content but also from usual symbolic codes. In this paper we present an experiment, Improbable, which aims to do this. The principle is two-pronged: it gives students the opportunity to embody a radically different role from what they have been trained to do previously, and it allows them to carry out activities that are similar to those accomplished by entrepreneurs. To do this, we chose to experiment with art: for four days, our students played the role of artists, on the verge of deception. |
