Sarasvathy's theory of effectuation identifies thinking patterns and heuristics of successful entrepreneurs. One proposed use of effectuation theory is as a framework for entrepreneurship education. In this paper, we survey the literature on effectuation as it relates to entrepreneurship education. Through a systematized literature review, we identify existing work and analyze it using Bloom's taxonomy and Pellegrino's assessment triangle. Our findings show that more thoughtful, research connections may help realize the effectuation's educational potential. We suggest an opportunity to re-contextualize the role of effectuation in entrepreneurship education from serving as content to serving as a cornerstone of assessment.
