Entrepreneurship Education - Science topic

The availability of external financing is one of the key determinants of entrepreneurship enabling startups. However, if the aging of the population is rapidly progressing, there are high fiscal burdens on business entities, citizens have low incomes, the infrastructure necessary for business development is underdeveloped, the economy is underdeveloped, education is underdeveloped, there is high corruption and crime, etc. then unfortunately the level of entrepreneurship and innovation is also low. What other factors are necessary for the development of entrepreneurship and innovation.

In addition to these, a precisely conducted risk analysis and implemented business risk management system can be helpful in business development. I described the applications of Big Data technologies in sentiment analysis, business analytics and risk management in an article of my co-authorship:

Dear Jack,

I would be glad to share it. My course starts on 20 November'23 and I plan to teach it on 21 Nov'23. I will share the response in terms of Useful or not for my class after that date. I hope that is ok?

Hai Dr, how are you? I am attracted to your question as I have some information on it. Below, I supply you with all the answers you need, but I would really appreciate it if you could press the RECOMMENDATION buttons underneath my 3 research papers' titles in my AUTHOR section as a way of you saying thanks and appreciation for my time and knowledge sharing. Please do not be mistaken, there are few RECOMMENDATION buttons in RESEARCHGATE. One is RECOMMENDATION button for Questions and Answers and the other RECOMMENDATIONS button for papers by the Authors. I would appreciate if you could click the RECOMMENDATION button for my 3 papers under my AUTHORSHIP. Thank you in advance and in return I provide you with the answers to your question below :

Entrepreneurial intention is the desire to start a business. Entrepreneurship education is the process of learning about entrepreneurship and the skills necessary to start a business. Cooperative performance is the ability of a group of people to work together effectively to achieve a common goal.

There is a strong positive relationship between entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurship education. Studies have shown that entrepreneurship education can increase entrepreneurial intention. This is likely because entrepreneurship education provides students with the knowledge, skills, and resources they need to start a business.

Entrepreneurial intention is also positively related to cooperative performance. Studies have shown that people who have a strong entrepreneurial intention are more likely to be effective team players. This is likely because people who have a strong entrepreneurial intention are more likely to be motivated, creative, and have a good understanding of teamwork.

It is difficult to say which one is superior, entrepreneurial intention or entrepreneurship education. Both are important factors in determining whether someone will be successful in starting a business. However, entrepreneurship education is likely to be more important for people who do not have a strong entrepreneurial intention.

Francisco L is awesome! A most underrated scholar and also a great human!

The aspects related to intuition are of a psychological nature and that, in the case of entrepreneurs, intuition is conditioned by the information that the person has about the market and, above all, the issues that refer to the skills that other entrepreneurs have in the sector. where you work, which allows you to detect your strengths, opportunities and weaknesses to undertake a business, for this there are methods and computer tools that make it possible to detect the circumstances of that specific market for which your knowledge allows you to have a better understanding.

You can start by identifying, synthesizing and explaining the authors or traditional or more representative currents. Next, identify similarities or differences. You can also establish a dialogue between them, criticize them, take a position for your research or make a system in order to define your object of study. There is no single way to do theoretical research.

If you are interested in self-efficacy Ican attach our work on the subject:

Dear Abdo Hasan Al-Harasi, An amazing question that is not easy to answer. In my opinion, during the studies, during the educational process, students should be explained the essence and positive aspects of social entrepreneurship. Within the subject of Entrepreneurship, one should indicate the important role of social entrepreneurship in the context of activating economic growth in the social market economy. It is necessary to indicate the essence and significance of social economic entities, the importance of social aspects in business, corporate social responsibility, environmental social responsibility, etc. as important factors in the development of modern, contemporary developing economies. During their studies, students should learn and complete internships in social enterprises, where human capital is one of the most important production factors. Students should learn about examples of companies developing as startups within social entrepreneurship. Many examples of this type of companies function in technological industries, new Internet media, innovative technologies, research companies operating in marketing, consulting companies operating in support services for human capital development, etc. In addition, students should be indicated the support system from state institutions for business development, startups developed as part of social entrepreneurship, including the system of financial grants and startup funds offered by public institutions, agencies of the ministries of economy and entrepreneurship, and other institutions and economic entities. In addition, the university should develop cooperation with this type of business entities, startup funds, government agencies for business support, chambers of commerce in order to develop the offer of academic business incubators so that students receive support during their studies in the event of a desire to establish their own company, create a startup, a company operating, among others . as part of social entrepreneurship.

Crowdfunding is one of the newer ways of funding a startup(s). So, some entrepreneurs put up a detailed description of their businesses on a crowdfunding platform. They mention the goals of their businesses, plans for making profits, how much funding they need and for what reasons and then consumers can read about the business(es) and give money if they like the ideas. Anyone can contribute money toward helping a business that they really believe in. Actually, we can say that there are some business ideas that are perfect for crowdfunding: Original tech gadgets; Independent books; Home cooking tools; Local Service businesses; Unique home inventions and etc.

Lubna Rashid , Dieter Bögenhold ,

meaning what? are you saying some informal entrepreneurs will find it hard, difficult, or impossible to transition to formal entrepreneurs, because of both/ either internal or external factors (context)?

Dieter Bögenhold , i think you are also perhaps suggesting one should differentiate among informal entrepreneurs, those who are truly keen and serious to transition to formal entrepreneurs. how would one do this?

would determination not be enough to negate context?

there is an entrepreneurial dichotomy of helping (holding hand) vs leaving alone (make it yourself). i suppose middle ground is best.

Stages:

1. Imparting subject knowledge

2. Practical implementation through incubation centers

3. Actual Business (Facilitation and Guidance)

In view of the above, it is also important to include in the above discussion also the following issue:

In the coming years, humanity should carry out pro-ecological reforms of the classic energy based on the burning of minerals by converting it into environmentally friendly energy based on renewable energy sources. It should be possible to allocate as much as possible to this environmentally-friendly transformation of the energy industry because what will be realized in this matter over the next dozen or so years depends on the pace of the progressive and accelerating process of greenhouse gas emissions and global warming. Ecological innovations developed primarily in the field of new technologies of renewable energy sources are helpful in the process of proecological energy transformation.

Thanks to ecological innovations, the scope and possibilities of implementing sustainable ecological development are increasing. In connection with the progressing global warming process, it is necessary to develop eco-innovations in the field of renewable energy development, improvement of sorting techniques, recycling, electromobility, organic farming, plastic reduction from packaging and conversion of plastics to biodegradable materials, etc.

In this way, through the development of ecological innovations and their implementation on an industrial scale, it is possible to implement sustainable pro-ecological economic development in modern economies. This is a key challenge for humanity in the 21st century. It is a challenge to the necessary and possibly quick implementation in the coming years.

Do you agree with my opinion on this matter?

In view of the above, I am asking you the following question:

Please reply

I invite you to the discussion

Thank you very much

Entrepreneurship is one of the key competences, and its' basic definition is ''turns ideas into action''. Each learning outcome/teaching goal that enables students to ''turn ideas into action'' is a part of ent. learning.

You're welcome.

Best regards.

Dear Friends and Colleagues of RG The issues of the importance of innovativeness and entrepreneurship in economic development are described in the publication: I invite you to discussion and cooperation. Best wishes

Activating innovation requires that an environment that encourages recreative thinking, sustainability of the business idea. There is need to build a network of groups for synergy building and information sharing. There is also a need to mentor the entrepreneurial disposition of the individual so that he can muster motivation

Worried about the unemployed youth, Govt. of India is trying to push the youth towards entrepreneurship as jobs created are few and far between. I am a strong advocate of and believe in "Entrepreneurship without innovation has no root and innovation without entrepreneurship has no fruit" (Quote from my book Entrepreneurship and New Venture Creation).

A wide spectrum of new programmes and opportunities to nurture innovation have been created by the Government of India across a number of sectors; Atal Incubation Center being one of the great initiative for Innovation and Entrepreneurship..

One of the important factors activating entrepreneurship and innovation is the inclusion of these issues in the curriculum at schools and universities. In this way, one of the developmental barriers can be reduced.

Education is one of the most important determinants of ensuring the country's economic development. It is also one of the forms of public goods, one of the social security categories for which the state is responsible for ensuring and financing at a given basic level. In addition, education in a modern, knowledge-based society, ie in contemporary developed economies, is becoming more and more important. In such economies, education shapes one of the most important factors of production, ie knowledge, information, technology, innovations and entrepreneurship.

I invite you to the discussion

Are you asking about statistical power or about model convergence?

David's advice pertains to having enough information in the data to enable the estimator to converge on a solution (parameter estimates).

The other important issue is power. For that, Monte Carlo simulation will probably be the best approach, because it can accommodate your exact model.

This is a very cricual question. I think the previous replies have mentioned interestng information.

I believe this question is linked to the relationship between education and society generally.

Education can focus on plenty of skills, knowledge and attitudes that can help local industry and entrepreneurship.

Skills: leadership, planning, desining, evaluating

Knowledge: things around local community that can help professional developent of learners

Attitudes: friendly to creativity and entrepreneuriship

That is in brief of course!

Antes de salir al mercado, deberian analizar si captaron una oportunidad de negocio y luego, afianzar su capital: humano, social, y financiero. Y de acuerdo a ello incorporar socios clave.

An entrepreneurial mindset, a combination of skills and attitudes. Whether applied in a corporate, academic, government or startup environment will contribute to agility and assertiveness in your career steps.

Dear Karen & Judit

You should most definitely add the following resources to your list:

Suresh, Jayshree, and Raj Ramraj. "Entrepreneurial ecosystem: Case study on the influence of environmental factors on entrepreneurial success." European Journal of Business and Management 4, no. 16 (2012): 95-101.

The proposed model seems pretty basic, but could be functional - depends on where you're heading with your research. The term "Entrepreneurship Ecosystem" refers to the elements outside the individual entrepreneur that are conducive to, or inhibitive of, the choice of a person to become an entrepreneur, or the probabilities of his or her success following launch. You may leave it to what your wrote or partly narrow it to six general domains (a conducive culture, enabling policies and leaderships, availability of appropriate financial funds, quality HR, venture-friendly markets for services and products, and a range of institutional and infrastructural support) and then develop it further (i.e. quality human resources could be broken down to typology of HR resources, infrastructural support should contain typology of various supportive spaces such as accelerators, business incubators, coworking centres, etc.).

Hope that helps.

I think your setting is similar to quasi-experimental design. If so, you may need to consider the design based on the validity issues. There are many issues related to validity (internal and external). You can refer to Campbell, D. T., & Stanley, J. C. (1963) in order to get the understanding and many other authors that explain the similar content.

Of course, in term of duration, it cannot be too long and it cannot be too short. Depending on your objective (s). And may be you want to consider the pre-test and post-test and the control mechanisms in between. The procedure need to be explained well. Plan the schedule of the treatments and non-treatments nicely.

Only I am a bit worry about your groups involved because if your are using the quasi-experimental. If not may be ok.

I enjoy this kind of research design because it will explain many things.

All the best!!

Dear all,

a typical dependent variable is entrepreneurial intention, which comes before actually starting and is very well researched and often used. You will find a lot of research using this variable in the top eship outlets.

As for anecdotal evidence: I teach a course "Digital Entrepreneurship" where students not only learn basics and tools for each step from finding an idea, developing the product or service, marketing, and financing it but also are put into heterogenous groups at the beginning of the semester and need to develop their own idea and pitch it at the end using the tools. The pitch is in front of real angels and investors that give feedback.

This year we had 9 teams and 3 of them want to continue and sought further support to really start. They have also connect with some of the investors to go the next steps.

i don't know how this will develop at the end but at least it's something.

Last year we had 7 teams, one really started and another one is still discussing with investors.

Best,

Dennis

Most HPLC's come equipped with a UV detector (PDA/DAD).  An IR detector is known but not typically used since everything absorbs (thus molecular spectroscopy) including mobile phase solvents like Methanol, Water....

Without concrete knowing I would suggest to have a detailed look in the resource based theory of the firm. Somehow this theory have to operationalize classes and types of resources (as the name suggests).

But I would be careful to explain BMI mainly with resources. Exactly this is what the BM concept teaches us. It's not the resources but also how you cope, use, combine resources. You can innovate BMI without big amounts of resources (take the Internet startups as the typical examples).

Hello,

the question is very important to ask. it's related to measure the impacts of entrepreneurship programs on student' attitudes and intentions. studying the issue through time means to differentiate the immediate, short and long term.

Measuring the attitudes of students after taking entrepreneurial course is an issue. Their attitudes and intentions did not change during a period of three months for example. if you are interested, you can take a look to this: 

Thank you so much for your help Salam! I will have a look on the VOA website. 

Dear Yash, 

I am looking to gain more insight about the following questions: 

- what are the challenges that women/female entrepreneurs face in Nigeria? 

- what are the necessary characteristics for female entrepreneurs to succeed in Nigeria? 

- what role does social media play in the lives of women in Nigeria? Can/does it help empower and inspire women?

Thank you so much for your input!

People who are thinking about starting their own business should understand that successful entrepreneurship involves much more than having a great concept, said Elizabeth Amini, CEO and co-founder of Anti-Aging Games LLC, a company that develops online games to train memory and focus, and an adjunct professor at the University of Southern California's Marshall School of Business.

"Most people think being an entrepreneur is all about coming up with an idea, but that's just one part," Amini told Business News Daily. "It's also important to know, right from the start, how you will reach interested customers in an effective and affordable way."

"Entrepreneurship is much broader than the creation of a new business venture," added Bruce Bachenheimer, a clinical professor of management and executive director of the Entrepreneurship Lab at Pace University. "At its core, it is a mind-set — a way of thinking and acting. It is about imagining new ways to solve problems and create value."...

Good luck in your research.

I would suggest creativity. See the literature on entrepreneurial creativity and the debate between catching rather than creating opportunities!

Hi, I agree with all above answers. However, I would like to stress on 3 very important and decisive factors:

1) The legislation of the country. When we read about entrepreneurship usually we think about western business and legislation. But in an emerging economy the legislation may be quite different. The legislation can stimulate or not developing SMEs.

2) Cultural value and the way people think about future and risk acceptance. There are cultures where education and religion do not encourage making decisions in conditions of uncertainty. Or, learning in SMEs means to have the capability of learning from both success and failure. If people are afraid of assuming risks in making decisions their learning style is missing an important component.

3) Learning usually is considered as a rational process. However, learning is a complex process which integrates rational, emotional and spiritual intelligences and the result of such a process should be found in rational, emotional and spiritual knowledge.

For a new approach to understand organizational learning and organizational knowledge dynamics I suggest the following book I published recently:

Constantin Bratianu (2015). Organizational Knowledge Dynamics: Managing Knowledge Creation, Acquisition, Sharing, and Transformation. IGI Global, Hershey, USA. (I attached a short presentation of the book).

Easiest way is looking over the documents which cited Gupton & Slick (1996). See following link: https://scholar.google.com.tr/scholar?cites=4352310932714643702&as_sdt=2005&sciodt=0,5&hl=en 

I am interested in Entrepreneurial Finance. Understanding what funding structures are available to MSMEs and if available funding sources do actually translate to the growth of these MSMEs that use them.

I think because it is an e-learning programme I would suggest including the Blooms Digital Taxonomy in which the equivalent digital verbs are used for the traditional ones.

Best regards,

Debra

Gabriele, there are quite a few books and guidelines floating around. Among the most popular are: 

- All of Steve Blank's books (The Startup Owner's Manual or The four steps to the epiphany)

- Eric Ries's Lean Startup methodology

- Vesper's New Venture Mechanics and New Venture Strategies

- A variety of startup 101's

You can also look at the SBDC's business plan templates and presentations. 

My suggestion is to lay out the types of entrepreneurial ventures first and then think about the path to venture creation for each of them. Here are some papers that could help you get started: 

Feel free to contact me if you like to discuss more.

Quantitatively speaking most new ventures are team-based. In terms of performance, there are mixed results. Generally team-based new ventures have better growth though... I believe that entrepreneurial teams should be a teaching subject (and I teach it) but not as a "must" or "should" do. Team entrepreneurship is not a panacea. I try to gather evidence for the best uses of entrepreneurial teams and, once that choice is made, for the hurdles to overcome and suggest solutions, methodologies. There are some interesting elements in Noam Wasserman's book "The Founder`s Dilemmas – Anticipating and Avoiding the Pitfalls That Can Sink a Startup" although I wouldn't be as categorical as the author in many instances. Also, I would recommend a forthcoming edited book I have worked on.

A study was made on Nepalese entrepreneurs by Binod Krishna Shrestha, titled: Business Opportunity Recognition and Development Process: A Study of Nepalese Entrepreneurs.

Additionally, there is a recent work of mine looking at opportunity and necessity entrepreneurship in India and China - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/301215670_Opportunity_and_necessity_entrepreneurship_A_comparative_study_of_India_and_China

Dear @Sergej, this article correlates with your interest.

"This paper aims to understand why some Entrepreneurship Education (EE) initiatives in secondary schools are ineffective. Specifically, the goal of this paper is to identify mistakes, which could have been responsible for the failures and to derive some useful lessons from them. From a theoretical perspective, it reviews entrepreneurship literature in order to examine the main five constitutive elements of EE in secondary schools: what should the goals of EE be, who should attend EE, who should teach it, what should be taught and how it should be taught. From an empirical perspective, it provides descriptions of the unsuccessful EE initiatives under investigation and discusses failure by collecting the opinions of stakeholders (teachers, principals and students) involved...."

"Ongoing" means "continuous". In business we consider that (business) environment is  dynamic and therefore 'continuously' changing, hence addressing change in business environment becomes an 'ongoing' concern for managers.  An organization's survival (longevity) depends on how effectively managers address the 'ongoing' concerns. That's the reason in business we cannot do away with the concept of 'ongoing concern'.

You could use Hofstede's cultural dimensiones for the cultural aspectos and use de GEM report for entrepreneurship development.

Dear Shouvik Sanjal:

In our article contained some success cases from training in entrepreneurship (page 410; 4 paragrah). Our work is also a success in the formation of entrepreneurship journalists.
