Abstract

This article aims to analyse students’ perceptions of the implementation of a new educational paradigm in the teaching of the Entrepreneurship module within the General Education Programme (MKU). This transformation is crucial for shifting from the traditional, lecturer-centred learning model to a student-centred

learning approach. The research method used was descriptive quantitative survey research. Data were collected via a questionnaire comprising 19 items distributed to 16 students and analysed using the Respondent Achievement Level (RAL) technique with the aid of Microsoft Excel. The results of the study indicate that the majority of students gave positive responses, predominantly falling into the ‘agree’ and ‘strongly agree’ categories across all indicators, including the lecturer’s role as a facilitator, student engagement, critical thinking skills, and the impact on personal development. These findings are reinforced by the average RAC score falling within the high category. The conclusion of this study is that the learning process for the Entrepreneurship course has successfully implemented the principles of a new educational paradigm that is active, participatory, and relevant to students’ needs. This study recommends the need for consistency in the lecturer’s role as a facilitator to maintain the effectiveness of educational transformation at the higher education level.
