Developing Social Entrepreneurs and Social Innovators: A Social Identity and Self-Efficacy Approach
Abstract
Training social entrepreneurs and social innovators is becoming increasingly prevalent in business schools throughout the world, highlighting the need for effective pedagogical strategies. Drawing on social identity theory and research on self-efficacy, we present a social identity and self-efficacy approach to social entrepreneurship education that focuses on helping students develop identities as social entrepreneurs and gain confidence in their ability to effect positive social change. We share examples of pedagogical devices and related content that have been used in the classroom to reinforce such an approach, and we offer four case examples to demonstrate the significant impact group social entrepreneurship projects can have on both students and society. We also identify—and offer suggestions for overcoming—many of the potential challenges faced when attempting to teach social entrepreneurship and innovation in a university setting.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
