The Effectiveness of Peer-to-Peer Entrepreneurship Training: A Comparative Study of Traditional Classroom Training and Peer-to-Peer Learning

This paper introduces a comparative study of the effectiveness of traditional classroom entrepreneurship training and peer-to-peer entrepreneurship training. The study's objective is to examine the impact of peer-to-peer entrepreneurship training on learner outcomes and compare it with traditional classroom training. The research was conducted using a quantitative research approach, and data was collected from a sample of 200 entrepreneurs who had completed entrepreneurship training programs. The data were analysed using statistical techniques such as regression analysis and t-tests. The study's findings suggest peer-to-peer entrepreneurship training is more effective than traditional classroom training in enhancing learners' entrepreneurial skills, knowledge, and attitudes. The study found that peer-to-peer learning improves learners' problem-solving abilities, communication skills, and critical thinking. The study also found that learners who participated in peer-to-peer training reported higher engagement and satisfaction levels than those who participated in traditional classroom training. The study provides important insights for entrepreneurship trainers and educators on the benefits of peer-to-peer entrepreneurship training. The findings suggest that incorporating peer-to-peer learning methods into entrepreneurship training programs can enhance the effectiveness of these programs and provide learners with a more engaging and interactive learning experience. The study also contributes to the growing body of literature on entrepreneurship education and highlights the need for further research in this area.
