Abstract

Youth entrepreneurship has been regarded as one the solutions to reduce unemployment and poverty in the country. Thus to encourage young people to acquire an entrepreneurial mindset and eventually start their own business, many schools have introduced entrepreneurship in their curriculum either as a specialization or as a full degree. The aim of this research is to examine from the perspective of the students, which of the various teaching methodologies being used in entrepreneurship classes has the greatest positive impact on students’ entrepreneurial awareness and intention. A survey, using a five-point Likert scale, was conducted among students of the University of the Philippines Los Banos taking an introductory course in entrepreneurship. Descriptive statistics and content analysis were used to analyze the data. Results indicated that majority of the students learn best through a combination of traditional techniques methodologies like lectures and non-traditional methods like business pitch competition. These results provide the faculty members handling the subject a greater assurance that the current teaching strategies meet the objectives of increasing entrepreneurial awareness and intention among university students.
