From September 2010 till April 2011 Agnieszka worked as an assistant professor in Entrepreneurship Unit at Aalto University School of Economics in Helsinki, Finland.

Agnieszka Kurczewska is a member of the Board of Directors of the European Council for Small Business & Entrepreneurship (ECSB). She was also a holder of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education in Poland scholarship for young researchers and stipend holder of the Foundation of University of Lodz. The heart of this monograph is to revisit existing knowledge on experiential pedagogy and then combine it with somehow forgotten concept of responsibility in order to enhance the fundaments of entrepreneurship education. This monograph aims to contribute to the dynamically developing fields of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship education. This contribution is a refreshed, experience and responsibility-based, view into the learning process. Including these two concepts into theory and practice of entrepreneurship education and also investigating them from different perspectives may result in rethinking and advancing the way entrepreneurship education is executed. The monograph is an invitation to the discussion on entrepreneurship education and its foundations. It tries to provide some answers to numerous questions, but also leaves a lot of them open, thus stimulates further reflections and research, exploring different facets and nuances of experiences and responsibility and their roles in entrepreneurship education. The monograph is available online: http://scouting.uni.lodz.pl.;
  The monograph is a result of the project “Academic Entrepreneurship Education – concept of an education as a projection of a business life within Mobility Plus” grant, financed by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education in Poland.
