“…Design thinking was originally the working way for a designer; they faced various problems over the years and subsequently designed and developed complex professional practices in their fields to solve the problems (Dorst, 2011). Previous research found that design thinking can improve student creativity skills and critical-thinking skills (Aflatoony & Wakkary, 2015) but not collaboration skills (Val, E. et al, 2019). Design thinking can foster entrepreneurial interest, but there are findings explaining that the design thinking process does not affect creativity skills and innovative opportunities but incremental innovation based on individual knowledge (Nielsen, et al, 2013).…”

“…Design thinking is one of the appropriate learning schemes in developing student creativity skills and entrepreneurial alertness (Val, E. et al, 2017;Val, E. et al, 2019). According to Aflatoony & Wakkary (2015), design thinking is applied to make students creative thinkers.…”

This research aims to examine the effectiveness of entrepreneurship learning with the Stanford D School design thinking approach and to make students more actively involved in learning activities so that their learning experiences can develop creative skills and entrepreneurial alertness. The underlying theory of the design thinking approach comes from the Experiential Learning Theory. This quasi-experiment was conducted by distributing questionnaires before and after the implementation of the learning approach. The research samples was students of the marketing expertise program from vocational schools, consisted of 60 students with Stanford D School design thinking approach and 60 students with teachercentered learning approach. The data were analyzed by the Independent Sample t-Test and Paired Sample t-Test with SPSS 23 program. The results show that there are significant differences in creativity skills and entrepreneurial alertness between the experimental and the control class, and there are significant differences in the creativity skills and entrepreneurial alertness of the experimental class after receiving entrepreneurship learning with the design thinking approach. This gap can be overcome after students receive entrepreneurship learning using design thinking approach. The results of this study prove that Stanford D School design thinking can be applied to entrepreneurship learning, especially in vocational schools.

“…While an initiative depends on product design, creative thinking and innovation, these three features are integrated (Vijayalakshmi, 2019). This is because the more different your product is from the other products, the more it attracts attention and provides you the opportunity to be superior in the competition process (Val, Gonzalez, Lauroba & Beitia, 2019). Increasing competition also increases the importance of design in products (Yu, Yuizono & Kim, 2019).…”

The aim of this study is to examine the prospective science teachers’ understanding towards entrepreneurial skills. This study, which 146 prospective science teachers of 3rd grade at two state universities in Turkey have participated in, is carried out through the survey method. The data of the research are gathered with “Entrepreneurship Test (ET)”. The acquired data are analyzed by using the content analysis method. It is observed that the relation between entrepreneurship and economy is particularly explained with several characteristics by about one third of prospective teachers, whereas the vast majority of them are unable to establish this relation or give meaningless replies as a result of the research. However, it is found out that the great majority of the prospective teachers are able to explain upon the opportunities of entrepreneurship on the basis of the cultural structure of society. It is seen that very few prospective teachers emphasize on creativity and innovation important in regarding to using entrepreneurial skill. Nevertheless, it is observed that integration of the prospective teachers’ sense of entrepreneurship with technology is inadequate. In addition, it is understood that the vast number of the prospective teachers are incompetent about how they will be able to use the nature and environment when they put their opinions into practice (in the process of business establishment). Moreover, it is revealed that very few candidates are aware of performing the operations such as determining the business idea, making a preliminary assessment of the business idea and questioning the feasibility of the business idea. Furthermore, it is determined that almost all candidates do not have information about the process and content of preparing a business plan. These results show that the prospective science teachers’ understanding towards entrepreneurial skill is quite weak. Keywords: Science, the prospective teacher, the entrepreneurship skill.

“…However, the idea that creativity causes entrepreneurial culture is inconclusive and weak, as others find that teacher's creativity does not significantly influence entrepreneurial intention but influences entrepreneurial intention through entrepreneurial education (Wibowo & Saptono, 2018). Since its teacher's creativity that motivates students to become entrepreneurs, some organisation implement 'Design Thinking' to cultivate entrepreneurial skills such as creativity and problem-solving abilities (Val, Gonzalez, Lauroba, & Beitia, 2019;Wibowo & Saptono, 2018). A systemic literature review shows that individual creativity causes entrepreneurial orientation among students to foster entrepreneurial culture (Rahim, Ismail, Thurasamy, & Abd, 2018).…”

The objective of the article is to examine the factors influencing the cultivation of entrepreneurship culture among private higher education institutions in Malaysia. Research Design & Methods:A sample of 300 students from private higher education institutions in Cyberjaya, Malaysia, was selected using a convenient sampling technique. The data were analysed using structural equation modeling via AMOS, 22.0. Findings: The result of the study indicates that empowerment is the only factor that has a positive and significant effect on cultivating entrepreneurial culture. We found that all other factors have no significant effect on cultivating entrepreneurial culture in the studied context. Implications & Recommendations: This study will enable education institutions to foster the entrepreneurial spirit among their students by focusing on empowering the students to carry out their tasks. This study recommends empowering students in their learning to promote entrepreneurial culture through the curriculum, assessment designs, and industrial engagement. Contribution & Value Added: This study contributes to the existing literature on promoting entrepreneurial culture among students by establishing the key determinants of entrepreneurial culture through risk-taking behaviour, innovation, creativity, and empowerment. One of the unique aspects of this research is that these four factors are studied together and tested based on what academic institutions in Malaysia do to cultivate entrepreneurial culture among the students.
