To analyze the data, the Mann-Whitney <em>U</em> test and Kruskal-Wallis H-test were used to compare grades between groups that utilized Kahoot and those that did not. Furthermore, Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed to analyze the responses from the satisfaction survey.

The methodology for responsible management education identifies three aspects to address: building sustainability knowledge, incorporating sustainability in an integrated way, and developing practical applications.

First, courses should start with sustainable development as the goal, i.e. finance as a means instead of finance for the sake of shareholder value maximisation. Second, courses should offer an alternative perspective to shareholder value, not just slight modifications. We suggest using the integrated value paradigm, which estimates not only financial value, but also social and environmental value, which tends to be an eye-opener to students. Third, practical learning tools could enhance the interdisciplinary learning experience of students.

The influence of gamification as a technological tool has been widely researched at primary and secondary levels of education. However, no previous model focused on constructing it to measure the learning outcomes at the postgraduate level of management education, specifically by considering elements of the National Education Policy 2023. The current study outlines this gap and signifies its unique contribution by answering three research questions formulated using the FINER approach to get policy insights. First, the study explores relevance and significance among various constructs (latent variables), such as student attendance, task influence, academic performance, and knowledge retention, affecting expected learning performance directly or indirectly via gamification, directly affecting expected learning outcomes. Secondly, select constructs are assessed based on the serial mediation effect and positive association via gamification with expected learning outcomes. Thirdly, the study validated student attendance (at the beginning and end stages), the moderating effect of task completion by students (orientation, motivation, teacher feedback, and time management), and their learning intent and expected outcomes via gamification construct. Using structural equation modeling, the model hypotheses were validated on primary data-based instruments and based on a sample collected from student respondents (executives) in a typical management classroom of a postgraduate-level management course. The reliability and validity of the research model were assessed. In addition, assessing the effect size and predictive relevance, the performance of select constructs, such as academic learning and knowledge retention, was highly significant. In contrast, student attendance and tasks showed less importance. The study concludes and shows theoretical and policy implications for management education research and artificial intelligence, with a few particular data biases and heterogeneity in data sets the future research directions for management education.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47191,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management Education","volume":"23 2","pages":"Article 101163"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143697106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this gap, this study first reviews the literature to explain how and why entrepreneurs' emotional displays persuade investors. A systematic review of 61 articles –which together reported 85 empirical studies-examining emotional displays that are more persuasive for investors is integrated into a comprehensive model based on social-functionalist theories of emotions. The model reveals that emotional displays impact entrepreneurial funding in the following complex ways: (1) different emotional displays can lead investors to similar inferences shaped by perceived authenticity, credibility, and appropriateness; (2) emotions can be conveyed through various means, with nonverbal emotional displays proving more persuasive than verbal displays; and (3) the same emotional display differently influences professional and nonprofessional investors. Building on these findings, we then present a pedagogy for developing interpersonal emotional skills among entrepreneurs. The proposed pedagogy outlines what to teach, grounded in the aforementioned model; how to teach, which draws on dramatic arts and emotional regulation theory; and how to identify instructors and target audiences. This approach benefits entrepreneurship training centers and students while also serving as a self-training resource for current entrepreneurs. This article presents the first comprehensive synthesis of emotional displays’ persuasiveness in funding interactions, addressing the need for further exploration of interpersonal emotional dynamics in entrepreneurship. It also contributes to entrepreneurship education scholarship by proposing a pedagogy model that instructors and entrepreneurs can use to develop skills in using expressed emotions as persuasive tools.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47191,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management Education","volume":"23 2","pages":"Article 101165"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143682354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
