Pedagogical models and ICT integration in entrepreneurship education:Literature review

Abstract

Entrepreneurial education in different contexts has gained relevance in educational institutions, incorporating various models to enhance the development of competencies in students. This literature review aimed to analyze publications from 2014–2021 to identify the models, methods, strategies, and resources used in entrepreneurship education and to recognize the elements of Education 4.0 that were incorporated. The systematic literature review (SLR) was the method used to carry out this study, with a sample of 37 articles in the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases. The search for articles was limited to those exclusively in English and in the two databases named above. The results show a diversity of models and methods used in the educational and social spheres to train entrepreneurs, mainly focused on practice. This literature review is relevant for educational institutions interested in supporting the training of entrepreneurs. It raises the desirability of Education 4.0 elements in the forefront of a student-centered education fully connected to the needs of society. It also provides value for researchers, identifying the educational gaps, the topics emphasized, and the areas necessary to deepen future research.
