This
course will introduce students to several SSC collections of individual papers
and organization records that shed light on the fight for economic justice,
especially for American women, both white and of color. In addition to some short secondary source
readings, students will then choose pre-selected documents from 14 designated
collections and in conversation with each other, both in class and in five
written responses on Moodle, discuss the ways in which a particular individual
or organization has addressed issues of economic injustice, what worked, what
did not, what needs to happen next. (1

Utilizing a case-study approach, including cases that teams developed in IDP155 as well as cases provided by the instructors, students will learn about business and organization finance models, presenting ideas in the pitch format, and planning, testing, and developing ideas, projects, businesses and organizations. It is strongly recommended (but not required) that students take IDP 155 prior to taking this course.
Because the class will meet every day for a few hours each morning, the instructors expect the work --- your work, primarily! --- to be done in two phases:
(1) outside of the class, during the afternoon and evening, when there will be a lot for you to do, and
(2) inside the class when you will present what you've done the day and evening before, and discuss your discoveries.
During these presentation-discussion sessions, the instructors will provide information, ideas, lovingly critical comments and feedback, and guidance. This class models the Stanford University business school approach: hands-on, real-world work, or what they call the flipped classroom.

Students will learn about and gain immediate experience with entrepreneurial innovation by developing ideas, projects and "start-ups” using the lean launch methodology. This is a fast paced, project-based, hands on, course using the Business Model Canvas tool, aspects of design thinking, engaged practice with presentations ("the pitch”), developing clear value propositions, and understanding customer segments and markets.
