Abstract

Recently, scientific research has attracted a lot of attention from university students. However, they still have a lot of difficulties in conducting research projects. In the present study, two sets of survey questionnaire were conducted online with 206 students who have not yet participated in the Innovative and Entrepreneurial Mindset course in Faculty of English language teacher education and with 113 language students who have completed the Innovative and Entrepreneurial Mindset course with the purpose of comparing and contrasting the level of difficulty the two target groups of student encountered when conducting research. Besides, the study aims at clarifying the effectiveness of the Innovative and Entrepreneurial Mindset course on the research activity to students. The results show that the Innovative and Entrepreneurial Mindset course with Design Thinking method has significantly contributed to solving the difficulties students meet when doing scientific research.
