We welcome you to the 4th

newsletter of the EnterSchool-

Mind project. This project

aims to cultivate the entrepre-

neurial mindset in elementary

schools through a holistic ap-

proach targeting teachers and

pupils.

This newsletter provides a

progress update.

About the project

Overview of IO6 - Assessment of Teachers IO6 involved creating

an assessment tool for

the teachers’ Entrepre-

neurial Assessment.

This was to be used to

assess the competenc-

es of teachers in Entre-

preneurial mind-set.

The consortium needed

to develop one assess-

ment tool for each of

the competences, cul-

minating in 8 small as-

sessment tools in total.

The structure of the

assessment was creat-

ed in accordance with

the certification

scheme for assessment

(IO3), and included a

mix of multiple choice

questions, scenario

based multiple choice

questions and a longer

case study question to

assess the knowledge,

skills and competences

of the teachers who

undertook the teacher

training in IO5.

The partners responsi-

ble for the 8 compe-

tences: MMC, Dimitra,

Rinova and FH Jo-

anneum designed a

pool of questions and

case studies. These

were then selected by

the Cyprus Certification
