  • 1.  Teaching research methods in entrepreneurship??

    Posted 09-04-2007 05:52
    Dear all,

    I will be in charge of teaching research
    methods to a group of students this fall
    and would love to hear Your experiences
    on teaching as I am new to this. I am especially interested in hearing
    of textbooks and materials that have really worked for You.

    It seems that students have especially difficulties in understanding
    the role of theory and overall decision making in the research
    process.
    For me personally Davidssons (2005) Researching Entrepreneurship
    has been a true eye opener but would love to hear of other materials
    that might prove helpful for my students.

    all the best,

    It's not specific to entrepreneurship but I teach Business Research and really like Duane Davis' Business Research for Decision Making 6th Ed. Also 2005(Thompson/SouthWestern)

    He does a good job of covering the elements of theory and then applies the whole thing to Decision Making in Business.
