This paper presents the implementation Problem-Based Learning (PBL) design in entrepreneurship and innovation management education, with a focus on enhancing students' innovative behavior and entrepreneurial orientation through the usage of different digital tools. A survey was conducted among 118 students from Germany, the Netherlands, and Poland. The findings of the study demonstrate that engaging in PBL activities has a positive impact on students’ digital tool usage, innovative behavior, and entrepreneurial orientation. Additionally, the results provide support for the full mediating role of students’ innovative behavior in the relationship between PBL activities and students’ entrepreneurial orientation. As a result, based on this research, we encourage Higher Education Institutions to incorporate digital tool usage into PBL open-source educational resources, thereby integrating effective skill sets into innovation and entrepreneurship education

Innovative development is a program that is given at The Hague University of Applied Sciences. This program teaches students to become more innovative. This article will look into the current approach and measure the growth in innovativeness of the students over the years. This was measured with a survey, based on the Berkeley innovation index. The results from the survey were calculated and scored based on eight factors. The innovative development program was compared with another program called information security management. These programs are from the same faculty. The information security management program did not show significant growth over the years in innovation. The innovative development program had resulted in a significant growth in innovativeness over the years. Some of the factors could be improved to increase the effectiveness of the innovative development program. https://nl.linkedin.com/in/haniers
