Challenge-based learning (CBL), as an innovative learning methodology, based on experiential learning and focused on applying students’ knowledge (acquired during their regular courses at university) to solve real-world challenges, is an excellent approach not just to develop creativity and entrepreneurial competences, but also to answer current societal challenges (e.g. UN SDG) by combining self-direct learning, interdisciplinary and cross-national teamwork, and an intensive use of technology.

Based on the developments of previous projects focused on on-site Entrepreneurship Education and considering the need to promote online or digital co-creation and entrepreneurial systems and dynamics due to the challenges evidenced by COVID-19 pandemic, the main aim of D-EMIND project (2021-1-ES01-KA220-HED-000032185) is to design, develop and test a digital challenge-based learning methodology, strategies, and tools for promoting entrepreneurial mindset in Higher Education.

We are glad to share with you our free to use resources that have focused on further development of the digital sphere of the on-site Atom model that fosters an entrepreneurial mindset (creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving) among students on online environments. Additionally, based on the conceptual approach of the Atom model a self-assessment tool has been created to measure creativity and entrepreneurial culture among HE students.
