IDEATE: a serious interplay of disciplines and culturesPeter Purg, 2016, published scientific conference contribution abstract
Abstract: Based on both quantitative and qualitative findings after two course runs in 2015 and 2016, the article will evaluate key
aspects of the IDEATE.me entrepreneurship workshop model – as serious play. In the IDEATE course university students from
four different countries and disciplines respond together to a contemporary challenge of global social significance,
eventually presenting a full product or service prototype. As a media-technology supported ecosystem, the blendedlearning
pedagogy offers space for particular gamification strategies, such as social and narrative suspense, win-win
oriented competition, conceptual way-finding, new-territory mapping etc. Seeking balance between own disciplinary
autonomy and exploring new roles, the students of IDEATE play along to navigate intercultural and interdisciplinary
environments, permeated by new electronic media – but still relying on body-in-space. Addressing teachers and university
managers, the entrepreneurial pedagogy of IDEATE will unfold on the background of the "eculog" paradigm (M. Giesecke),
suggesting a timely understanding of interdisciplinary communication and collaboration.
