Abstract:
The study's objective is to present the construction and establish the reliability and
validity of the Entrepreneurial Pedagogical Practices Scale (EPPS) for secondary
school teachers. The items were based on the Entrepreneurial Mindset Curriculum
(EMC) Framework 2020, published by the State Council of Educational Research &
Training (SCERT) Institute, Delhi. The EMC framework recommended three
pedagogical practices a) Experiential, b) Inspirational, and c) Reflectional. The tool
initially has 110 items in two subscales: - Teachers’ understanding of curriculum &
Pedagogical practices followed by teachers. The first subscale measured teachers’
understanding of the EMC curriculum whereas the second subscale was developed to
measure the frequency of pedagogical practices recommended in the EMC
framework. The second subscale is further divided into three domains: student
engagement and learning; classroom environment, and evaluation.
