Research 2010/2011 - High quality research papaprs for business education, economics education and enterprise education
This unit is a repository for high quality papers recently written by colleagues and PGCE students in England and Wales following Masters level courses in business education, economics education and enterprise education during 2010/2011. As these papers have been identified as high quality, they are likely to be published in a journal in the future. In the meantime, we are pleased to publish these papers here to support those of you who are seeking data from the latest research in enterprise, business and economics education.
The EBEA is grateful to the authors and tutors for agreeing to share these materials.
Papers are listed in alphabetical order of authors and unless otherwise stated, are in pdf format
Also included are PowerPoint presentations from University of Worcester PGCE students who are required to present their work formally to colleagues in school and to peers and tutor in University as part of their assessment.
