Abstract

This book provides fresh insights into entrepreneurship pedagogy by foregrounding innovative pedagogical practices emerging from the uniquely diverse landscape of South African higher education. Through detailed South African case studies, this book captures practical insights that extend beyond local relevance to inform and inspire educators across Africa and the broader Global South. The chapters span multiple academic disciplines and institutional contexts, offering interdisciplinary approaches that are adaptable across varied educational settings. Importantly, the pedagogical innovations showcased align with key global imperatives, particularly the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to quality education (SDG 4), decent work and economic growth (SDG 8), and reduced inequalities (SDG 10). As such, this volume serves not only as a scholarly resource but also as a strategic tool for institutions and policymakers committed to these global objectives. Structured to foreground clear teaching strategies, grounded examples, and actionable methodologies, this book addresses the practical needs of academics, trainers, and curriculum designers. Its educational orientation ensures that the insights provided are readily translatable into classroom practice and professional learning contexts, connecting theoretical insights with classroom practice in entrepreneurship education.
