Abstract

Entrepreneurship education has been widely recognized as a strategic instrument for fostering entrepreneurial intention among students. However, the mechanism through which entrepreneurship education influences entrepreneurial intention, particularly through psychological factors, remains underexplored and shows inconsistent findings in prior studies. This study aims to examine the role of self-confidence as a mediating factor between entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intention, highlighting its conceptual novelty as a psychological pathway. Using a qualitative approach with a systematic literature review method, this research analyzes and synthesizes peer-reviewed international journal articles selected based on relevance, credibility, and conceptual alignment. The analysis applies a structured content analysis technique to identify patterns, relationships, and theoretical explanations regarding the mediating role of self-confidence. The findings indicate that entrepreneurship education not only directly influences entrepreneurial intention but also indirectly strengthens it through the development of self-confidence. Specifically, experiential learning, exposure to role models, and practical simulations enhance students’ confidence, which in turn increases their perceived capability to engage in entrepreneurial activities. This demonstrates that self-confidence functions as a critical psychological mediator that translates educational experiences into entrepreneurial motivation. This study provides an analytical contribution by clarifying the mediating mechanism linking entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intention. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating confidence-building pedagogical strategies into entrepreneurship curricula to enhance students’ readiness for entrepreneurial careers and support sustainable economic development.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of the Problem Solving Based Learning (PSBL) model in enhancing students’ critical thinking and creativity within digital learning environments. A qualitative literature review approach was employed to examine scholarly sources related to PSBL, critical thinking, creativity, and the integration of digital technologies in education. The findings indicate that PSBL promotes higher-order cognitive skills through authentic problem-solving tasks, collaborative learning, and reflective practices. These components encourage students to engage with real-world issues, evaluate information critically, generate innovative solutions, and reflect on their learning processes. Furthermore, the integration of digital tools, including online platforms, simulations, and virtual reality, enriches the problem-solving experience by expanding access to information, facilitating real-time collaboration, and providing immersive learning opportunities. The novelty of this study lies in the development of an integrated conceptual framework that synthesizes problem-solving processes, collaborative learning, reflective practices, and digital technologies into a unified model for fostering both critical thinking and creativity. The study also contributes theoretically by extending constructivist and digital pedagogy perspectives through a comprehensive explanation of the mechanisms linking PSBL implementation to higher-order cognitive and creative outcomes. It is concluded that PSBL, when effectively supported by digital technologies, offers a robust pedagogical framework for preparing students to meet the complex challenges of the 21st century. Future research should investigate the long-term effectiveness of the model across diverse educational contexts and technological settings.
