Effectuation and causation in the entrepreneurship classroom: learning obstacles of college students

Anastasios Sioukas

Abstract

Effectuation has taken center stage in entrepreneurship education. Yet, research demonstrates that effectuation and causation are used by entrepreneurs interchangeably as needed and that they are both positively related to venture performance. Furthermore, combining effectuation and causation has been shown to further enhance venture performance. This study synthesizes a model of entrepreneurship education that combines effectuation and causation and tests it through a process course for college students. Evidence shows that students embraced effectuation, causation, and their joint use. Data indicate three obstacles that prevented students from committing to their learning and the entrepreneurial process: low entrepreneurship readiness, the weaker structure of process courses, and perceived lack of outside resources.

In the context of the fourth industrial revolution (4th IR), there is a transformation in existing and new occupations. It emerges urgent need of advanced skilled manpower. It is because of impact of advanced technology in the day-to-day life. In general, rural youths are unaware of and unprepared for this challenge. To remain pace with, competencies need to be developed among the first-generation entrepreneurs for better livelihood and also to attain UN’s Sustainable Development Goals SDG-2030. Awareness and preparedness about “Technical, Vocational Education and Training” (TVET) and entrepreneurial education (EE) skills among the rural youths needs to be assessed and compared among the various groups of TVET learners. Youths under the formal academic system of education and customized training module were the population of this study. Awareness and preparedness among the different group of TVET learners is different that effects on the advanced skills. This paper gives insight into addressing this research gap by the experimental and applied research. In the context of the 4th IR, tried-out TAILOR-C model gets modified to remain pace with time with a number of required various components of the skills. This research is for the policy makers, career aspirant youths and entrepreneurship educators in the context of basics in competency mapping. The scope of this research paper is limited to the TVET and EE to the competencies with 4th IR. Life skills, applied transformational skills, soft skills, skills of digital entrepreneurship and ICT should be the inherent components of the EE curriculum. It is the major outcome of this experimental research. Importance of digital pedagogy for TVET and EE in the post-COVID era is also addressed in this study.

“Food chemistry”: High-stakes experiential entrepreneurship education in a pop-up restaurant project

Pauline A. Milwood & Sarah Hartman-Caverly

Abstract

In response to ongoing philosophical and pedagogical debates in university-based entrepreneurship education (EE) research, this study offers a cross-disciplinary perspective of how hospitality management students experience a high-stakes, experiential entrepreneurship project. We present vignettes of dialogues, experiences, and interactions among “student-manager” members of a small group engaged in developing and implementing a real-world, fine dining pop-up restaurant. By triangulating our analysis of classroom observation data, social network maps, and student artifacts, we chronicle four vignettes of how students experience learning during ideation, design, launch, and evaluation modules. Theory–practice gaps, coping humor in load–overload states, and complex affective–cognitive interactions emerge as salient elements of high-stakes experiential EE. We discuss implications for learners and educators and put forward recommendations to inform and improve the design of cross-disciplinary models of experiential EE.

Effectiveness of virtual team learning in entrepreneurship education: a survey study

Li Chen, Dirk Ifenthaler, Wenting Sun, Tao Xu & Guanghao Yan

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of virtual team learning for entrepreneurship competence in the Chinese higher education sector. Related research on the effectiveness of virtual team learning is sparse, especially in the area of entrepreneurship education. We assumed four hypotheses to analyze two sorts of relationships: one between input, respondents’ demographics or characteristics, and mediators, namely virtual teamwork, virtual taskwork, information and communication technology; the other between mediators and output, thus the effectiveness of entrepreneurship education. An online survey was carried out to collect respondents’ perceptions of virtual team learning in entrepreneurship education from teamwork, taskwork, and information and communication technology aspects, considering respondents’ demographics or characteristics. By explaining factors of the team process, the findings show that virtual teamwork, taskwork, and information and communication technology positively affect the entrepreneurial outcome of virtual team learning. Additionally, individual characteristics, including gender, education degree, education field, entrepreneurial family history, and prior entrepreneurial experience have different effects on three elements of virtual teams. The applied model provides a holistic perspective on virtual team learning and explains the association between three sectors. These findings may provide an empirical basis for making decisions in the design and development of entrepreneurship learning and teaching offerings.

Chiheb Eddine Inoubli & Lamia Gharbi

Abstract

Entrepreneurship is becoming one of the most adequate solutions to reduce various, social, environmental and economic problems. In order to encourage and boost entrepreneurship in the country, Tunisian government has opted for providing numerous supporting activities. In contrast, the results were not as expected. As such, understanding of what influence individuals intention towards entrepreneurship is important in the effort of entrepreneurship development. This study addresses university students and aims to study of entrepreneurial intention: the influence of entrepreneurial orientation on entrepreneurial intention and behaviour. A survey was conducted on 300 students from a public university pertaining to different specialties. The results revealed that university students have high interest in entrepreneurship and possess the desire to become entrepreneurs as well. The aforementioned survey indicated that entrepreneurial intention of university students was affected positively by their quality of proactiveness while innovativeness and risk-taking ability were not considered as influential factors. Thus, this paper puts under scrutiny the study of entrepreneurial intention, which can help researchers and policymakers to grasp the different aspects of entrepreneurship, mainly in the phase that precedes the entrepreneurial process.
