The stay has a duration of 3 months, from August to November 2023. During this period, Marisol Galdames-Calderón has the opportunity to learn about the pedagogical practices of facilitators who foster entrepreneurial mindsets through Challenge Based Learning (CBL).. In her own words: “Every day is a different adventure. I watch the facilitators design challenging but fun tasks that stimulate students’ curiosity and ingenuity. I watch them patiently guide them and encourage them to take calculated risks as they develop real business projects. I cannot fail to mention how rewarding it is to interact with the students. Their enthusiasm is contagious, and watching them grow as entrepreneurs motivates me even more in my own research.”
