Abstract

Entrepreneurship education prepares technical and vocational education and training (TVET) students with the competencies and entrepreneurial mindset required for future business endeavors. Guided by the theory of planned behavior (TPB), this study examines how such education shapes students’ self-employment intentions (SEI). A quantitative survey was administered to 300 undergraduates at Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM), and the data were analyzed using correlation and regression methods. The results show that entrepreneurial intention is positively linked to attitude toward behavior (r=0.474), entrepreneurship education (r=0.416), subjective norms (r=0.374), and perceived behavioral control (r=0.346), with attitude identified as the most influential predictor, accounting for 22.4% of the variance. These outcomes emphasize the centrality of individual motivation and the enabling role of entrepreneurship education in cultivating entrepreneurial aspirations. The study highlights the strategic importance of embedding stronger entrepreneurship curricula in TVET institutions to enhance self-employment readiness and support national goals for workforce development and economic resilience. The findings resonate with Malaysia’s National Entrepreneurship Policy 2030 and the TVET empowerment agenda, pointing to the value of initiatives such as campus incubators, seed funding, and mentorship in transforming entrepreneurial intention into tangible venture creation.

Abstract

Establishing pre-intervention baseline equivalence is essential for strengthening the internal validity of quasi-experimental studies. However, baseline comparability is often underreported in educational technology research, particularly in evaluations of emerging AI-supported instructional innovations. This study addresses this methodological gap by examining baseline comparability before implementing a newly developed AI-supported gamified Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model in entrepreneurship education. The novelty of the study lies in explicitly positioning baseline assessment as a methodological foundation for strengthening the interpretation of intervention effects in AI-enhanced learning research. A quasi-experimental design was employed involving an experimental group (n = 30) and a control group (n = 26). Pre-test data were analysed using descriptive statistics and the Mann-Whitney U test because the data were not normally distributed. The experimental and control groups recorded comparable mean pre-test scores of 85.33 and 85.19, respectively. No statistically significant baseline difference was found between the groups (U = 303.00, Z = −1.467, p = .142, r = .20). These findings support the baseline comparability of the two groups and provide a stronger methodological basis for interpreting subsequent differences in learning outcomes as being associated with the intervention rather than substantial pre-existing group differences.
