Abstract
New learning techniques have been incorporated in the last decade to motivate the students of
the Z-Generation, who are characterized by searching for their self-learning processes and being
permanently exposed to information. The significant challenge for educators is to get their
attention with different educational models than thetraditional methods. This paper incorporates
several learning strategies (e.g., presentation, case method, multimedia cases, simulation, and
gamification) in the context of engineering education. Specifically, this research examines the
effect of those methodologies on student academic achievement and the learning environment.
We conclude that these techniques can be a useful approach to develop an entrepreneurial
mindset in Business Engineering students. Therefore, they may be considered powerful tools to
sustain entrepreneurship education.
