摘要
Despite various efforts by the Department of Higher Education and Training, innovation and creativity have not been able to develop graduate entrepreneurship through traditional methods contributing to graduate and youth unemployment. This is because of curriculum decay, a lack of skilled academics and technology. An inquiry into the cause of low graduates' entrepreneurship momentum and action informed the need to explore the relationship between systemic action learning action research in transformative learning and entrepreneurship to foster entrepreneurship momentum. Therefore, entrepreneurship education, a learning process 'about' business and entrepreneurship management and entrepreneurship training 'for' momentum development are the focus of this study. The study employed a nondualist approach with quantitative design in a longitudinal systemic action learning action research training to develop and activate students' entrepreneurship momentum. Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 26 was employed to observe progressive development and relationships between the variables. The study finds systemic learning and transformation theory contribute to entrepreneurial momentum and improve graduates' inventive and creative skills. The study recommends incorporating the SALAR model into curricula and training programmes to equip aspiring 'studentpreneurs' with systemic problem-solving skills. Policy-makers should recognise and consider incorporating the value of systemic action learning action research in entrepreneurship development..
