Entrepreneurs have transformed our world since the beginning of humanity. Human ingenuity and hard work has lead to the creation of invaluable products such as the incandescent light bulb, the Harry Potter series, and the iPad. With the advent of computers and the Internet, the technological transformation of the world has continued at an unprecedented pace. For this assignment, you will choose a famous entrepreneur to study and create a report to share your learning.

This resource guides students through conducting their own research report on an entrepreneur (24 topics are listed). After choosing an entrepreneur to focus on, students are asked to conduct research using the Internet and books while following criteria.

Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a student-centered pedagogy in which students are challenged to actively learn about a subject for an extended period of time. It is a form of active learning or inquiry-based learning. Project-Based Learning is in contrast to paper-based, rote memorization, or teacher-led instruction that presents established facts. Please be aware of what you are purchasing.
