Topic: Importance of entrepreneur in school curriculum (Read 918 times)

I don't know how true this is about some others, but right here in my country most university curriculum does not take or treat seriously the subject  matter unlike the other discipline.
      For me entrepreneur is a discipline that all academic institution should pay special attention to if they really want to sustain the society and the globe economic wise.
Let's look  at a practical example of the world billionaires today, a good number of them are not making their millions because of their discipline of study rather they still fall back to entrepreneurship.
       Including wealthy politicians are notably entrepreneurs in one economic aspect or the other because every area of human life is driven by entrepreneurship which is the economy.

I enjoy entrepreneurship because I am an entrepreneur. Some of the most crucial principles you can teach are proactivity and starting with the end in mind. I'd rather my child learn that she is the master of her own destiny than learn biology. Sorry, I just had to.


Except, as I thought at the time, and it remains true a decade later, the entrepreneurial kids in such programs were frequently the ones who did not attend college. They are, ironically, the ones who make less money than their colleagues, have greater divorce rates, and have chosen easier careers: construction, sales, and real estate. However, $40,000 per year seems excessive to an 18-year-old.

From my own understanding and my observation in cryptocurrency and also in intrapreneurship intrapreneurship is a factor of production that affect other parts of reproductive services for an industry and with enterprenuer you can be able to establish your own business without seeking for government employment or government job that is why many people have to go into intrapreneurship so that they can be able to survive without government empowerment

As we see today government and private sector jobs are deminishing in our society so the only alternative is diversification which is through business and for this to come to accomplishment people have to get the primary knowledge before they really go into it and this is by making it a compulsory course in schools so as to teach the students the need to be self reliance and indepent.

I think when entrepreneurial skills is added to the school curriculum it will reduce the tendency of youths after graduation no job, not to involve in illegal activities like internet fraud because what comes to their mind first is what can I even do.

If universities in or something they supposed to implement their uses or teaching of entrepreneurship because in some countries there is not work that is not employment opportunities but with intrapreneurship son graduated student can be able to know what they will do with a little amount of money to establish and start earning a living with such little establishment

Intrapreneurship is a kind of studies that will elaborate student or people on what to do after leaving school so enterpreneurship is good and it is supposed to be a general studies for the family so that any two child being born will understand its own goals and focus in life without being discouraged in anything by different people

the point you have mentioned is very right. these days school education is not worth discussing.most of the lessons we learn we learn from life is when we enter the practical life and do blunders on our own.

I don't see any importance of entrepreneur in school because what people learn nowadays do not worth it. Even the lectures that are lecturing people on entrepreneurship may not have other things doing that is fetching them money. We lead by exam so I don't think there it is necessary for the need for entrepreneurship course in school.

Do you know that academic session the school calendar for school curriculum does not come after life because when you're done with school and I don't think that you practice whatever thing that you learnt in school in your field work so all those curriculums is to just make sure that you have completed he has school conditions but he answered the world what we apply is wisdom to make functions to be easier in human life

that is correct - school syllabus playes a very important role in building thr personality of the person.
A part from this practical also helps in making kids life practical - jews are very good in building the personality of a student. They also make expecting mothers do maths exercises so their kids are great in learning calculations

It's true that many college graduates think that after they graduate they will work in various companies, many think like that it will cause intense competition in finding work, people who "lose" in this competition will be unemployed for an uncertain time, therefore the thought of starting a business is a lesson that should be taught from a young age so that is a very good adventure,From the time when a student will be able to understand the real life situation, I think they should know that to be entrepreneurs,is self confidence. But at present, in many places especially in the third world, where not to teach entrepreneurs but how to more experience for getting a good job. If a country is to reached in a good position, then they have no alternative without the entrepreneur, lack of entrepreneur the business organization will not be organized, the government will not get enough revenue. As the entrepreneur is created, Employment will increase. Therefore, if adequate knowledge can be given regarding the issue from school life, it should be implemented.

I strongly support entrepreneurship in the curriculum in every school since high school so that boys and girls can be independent in their lives, especially now that competition is getting tougher and those with ordinary knowledge will only be left behind. just imagine how big a country's economy will grow if the young people there have good skills in entrepreneurship.

The most important thing to learn in  school is English so that one can do business or work in any place and in circumstances. Then comes financial  managment which is very important in my opinion

There's a big need for us to begin to teach our children on being an entrepreneur right from their school days till they are fully grown for them to understand the reality in business and professional life and career, we need to engage them on this practical aspect so that they can get used to it, many entrepreneurs fails in the real business because they lack the practical aspect for a setup, but starting this at the early stage of life will make it an avenue for them to get exposed widely with enough experience in it that will help them maintain the real life experience as an entrepreneur.

From the time when a student will be able to understand the real life situation, I think they should teach them to be entrepreneurs. But at present, in many places especially in the third world, where not to teach entrepreneurs but how to more experience for getting a good job. If a country is to reached in a good position, then they have no alternative without the entrepreneur, lack of entrepreneur the business organization will not be organized, the government will not get enough revenue. As the entrepreneur is created, Employment will increase. Therefore, if adequate knowledge can be given regarding the issue from school life, it should be implemented.

Most of the schools learned are theories that are not in accordance with reality, this makes someone who is smart or intelligent in school become unemployment when graduating, it is time for school to make priority important for entrepreneurs so that when graduating it will become an independent person full of positive ideas to build economics.

Absolutely, I believe fostering entrepreneurial skills right from an early age can be a game-changer in the education system. There is a potent mix of natural talent, creativity, and skill that often lies dormant within an individual, and it's our duty to tap into that wellspring. Identifying one's talent is indeed a complex task. It's a bit like archaeology; it requires patience, diligence, and sometimes the right tools to unearth the hidden treasures within us. But once discovered, these talents can become the bedrock of success, resilience, and innovation.

Your experience at the university is a powerful testament to the impact of entrepreneurship education. Start-up capital is indeed a critical element, but remember, some of the most successful businesses began with a strong idea, perseverance, and a shoestring budget. As for the implementation of entrepreneurial studies in secondary schools, it is a burgeoning trend. It would indeed be a smart move. After all, why wait till university to ignite the spark of entrepreneurship when we can fan those flames earlier? This could be the stepping stone towards a generation of trailblazers and innovators.

I agree with you, sir; some people (both children and adults) may have hidden talents in them, but they may be confused about identifying what their main talents are because they can do different things smoothly or they can't do anything at all. Once one identifies what his or her real talent is, they may not face any big problems that they cannot scale, mostly when it concerns their talent. I feel the board of education has seen how helpful it is, which is why they are integrating it in schools. Like during my school days at the university, I did an entrepreneurship course in my third and fourth year, and to be honest, the skill I learned in the team where I belong is really good, and I will be practicing it if I have enough start-up capital.

Some of my teammates and other students in different teams are excelling in the skills they learned during our entrepreneur practicals. This study helps some break out of their low self-esteem and explore, and if they had not gone through the course, they would not have done better than they are doing now. Also, for those who have already identified their talent, it helps to model how to really go about it.

Almost every university in my country is doing entrepreneurial studies, but I don't know if it has also been initiated in secondary schools.

This write up speaks to what I've been saying since I myself was back in school many years ago.  I was constantly telling teachers "we will never ever use this in the real world" and to my credit, those statements have held true, but I do recognize the importance of challenging and sharpening your brain, but more real world stuff needs to be built in to school curriculums and I couldn't agree more to what you're stating here.
