How to Start Your Own Business. [Women Entrepreneurs Project.] Instructor's Guide / Patricia P. McNamara.

This guide was developed to help instructors teach the course for women entrepreneurs as presented in the text, "How to Start Your Own Business." (This small business management course, a product of the California Women Entrepreneurs Project, and the final project report are contained in two related documents--CE 017 320 and 322.) The content is divided into two parts. The first provides a general introduction to and overview of the course and includes the history of the course and its design, sponsorship, curricular placement, length, class schedule, and texts; prerequisite skills and role of the instructor; and anticipated student clientele (includes a student information form). It then presents information and guidelines regarding publicity, guest speakers, and resource development, including samples of press releases, letters to guest speakers, and a sample resource list. Finally, part 1 discusses small group exercises and course evaluation, including a rating form. Part 2 reviews the ten class sessions, and each review includes the rationale for and purposes of the session, an agenda (includes review of assignment, small group exercise(s), guest speaker presentation(s), and wrap-up), and, when appropriate, lists of supplemental information sources and reading references.
