By referring to the views of a diverse range of actors within business schools (students, graduates, faculty members, and deans), undertaking a comprehensive examination of the relevant indicators, and employing various qualitative and quantitative data collection methods, the results indicate that despite the positive attitude of key actors within Iranian business schools about the necessity of promoting RME, a great indifference towards the implementation of RME is seen. The researchers identify an incomplete American model that guides the formation of Iranian business schools and suggest that it is time for them to redefine themselves as social institutions with specific responsibilities towards society.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47191,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management Education","volume":"23 2","pages":"Article 101133"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143179128","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}

The prime novelty of this study lies in its comparative analysis of the effectiveness of AI tools in entrepreneurial education before and after their implementation. The data were collected from recognized institutes of the Higher Education Commission based in Lahore and Islamabad, Pakistan. We employed a two-stage, time-lagged data collection approach. The initial phase (T1) involved the participation of 275 entrepreneurship students, followed by a second collection (T2) of 234 responses suitable for analysis. The data were analyzed and compared in a two-stage process (before and after) through partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The study revealed that artificial intelligence tools embedded in teaching methods dramatically improved students' entrepreneurial attitudes and learning by offering useful and automated solutions. It further concluded that AI serves as a dynamic and effective educational tool for shaping entrepreneurial intentions, thus offering actionable insights for core curriculum development in academia. Finally, this study contributes significantly by bridging the gap in the literature on the direct impact of AI on cultivating an entrepreneurial spirit among university students.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47191,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management Education","volume":"23 2","pages":"Article 101106"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143179127","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}

As accounting education shifts toward digital platforms, integrating technology has become crucial to enhancing students' creative and problem-solving capabilities. The study examines how exposure to digital accounting tools and systems impacts students' ability to innovate, especially with their confidence in using technology (technological self-efficacy) and their proficiency in digital skills (digital literacy). The study employed a survey-based methodology to gather data from students and professionals in accounting who have experience with digital accounting tools. Findings suggest that digital accounting education significantly enhances innovative thinking, with technological self-efficacy as a key moderator amplifying this effect. Students with higher levels of self-efficacy and digital literacy demonstrate a stronger capacity for innovation than those with lower levels. The study highlights the importance of integrating technology-focused training in accounting curricula to better equip students for the evolving demands of the profession. The implications for educators and policymakers include the need to prioritize technological skill development along with traditional accounting instruction to foster a culture of innovation in the field.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47191,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management Education","volume":"23 2","pages":"Article 101131"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143179129","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 and enrich academic content, we introduce a Supply Chain Mapping Project based on a Project-Based Learning approach to instruct undergraduate business students in fundamental mapping skills and raise awareness of the complexities involved in producing high-quality maps. The project is implemented in two upper-level undergraduate courses. The project's effectiveness is assessed through the post-project survey responses. Results indicate that students were actively engaged throughout the project. Similarly, survey results from one of the similar courses offered in the subsequent semester validate the effectiveness of the project.
