Abstract:
The purpose of this text is to present the results of a pilot test that is part of a validation process of a proprietary methodology, which aims to develop skills and competencies associated with social entrepreneurship, along with the competency of complex thinking. This methodology considers the use of a technological platform that, through self-directed activities, promotes the development of social entrepreneurship and complex thinking skills. From these results, we seek to argue the relevance of this methodology by focusing on the development of capabilities, beyond the generation of entrepreneurial projects. This text exposes the need to develop educational technological tools that allow the development of people, regardless of the institution to which they belong or the specialized human resources to which they have access.
