Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the fundamental learning theories that can be utilized to foster motivation and aspiration among students, with the ultimate goal of cultivating their potential to become successful entrepreneurs or business owners. There is a scarcity of research or scholarly inquiry pertaining to the learning theories and the determinants that impact students' motivation to achieve success as entrepreneurs or business proprietors. The study employs the use of Reporting Standards for Systematic Evidence Syntheses (ROSES). This study could enhance student motivation in dynamic educational settings that foster an entrepreneurial mindset.
