Entrepreneurship Education in a Poverty Context: An Empowerment Perspective
整合赋权理论与体验式学习,提出一个概念模型,认为赋权在贫困背景下体验式学习方法与学习成果之间起中介作用,并用一个支持低收入者创业的项目加以说明。
Empowerment is an important but understudied phenomenonExperiential Learning in entrepreneurship education. We integrate literatures on empowerment theory and experiential learning to propose a conceptual model of empowerment‐based entrepreneurship education. The concept of entrepreneurial empowerment is introduced as a cognitive state characterized by meaning, competence, self‐determination, and impact toward entrepreneurial activities. The model proposes that empowerment has a mediating role in the relationship between experiential learning approaches in a poverty context and the acquisition of learning outcomes. The model is illustrated using an entrepreneurship and adversity program that supports local low‐income individuals in starting and growing their ventures.
