Abstract: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in educational settings has created unprecedented opportunities for ‎pedagogical innovation and entrepreneurial development. This study investigates the mediating role of AI-powered ‎pedagogical innovation between teacher entrepreneurial orientation (TEO) and student entrepreneurial outcomes ‎‎(SEO). Using a quantitative approach with data from 385 educators and 1,247 students across 45 institutions, we ‎employ structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze the relationships among constructs. Results indicate that AI-‎powered pedagogical innovation significantly mediates the relationship between TEO and SEO (β = 0.624, p < ‎‎0.001), accounting for 67.3% of the total effect. We propose four mathematical models to quantify these ‎relationships and develop three algorithms for implementing AI-driven entrepreneurial education frameworks. Our ‎findings suggest that strategic deployment of AI technologies, combined with entrepreneurially-oriented teaching ‎practices, can enhance student entrepreneurial competencies by up to 43%. This research contributes to the growing ‎body of literature on educational technology and entrepreneurship education, providing actionable insights for ‎educational administrators and policymakers‎.
