Importance of entrepreneur in school curriculum

[Cryptomultiplier]

It has become necessary in recent days that even in churches, entrepreneurship is being taught.
Schools shouldn't be left out. A step in the right direction will be to introduce entrepreneurship in school curriculum. It is being taught in the tertiary institutions as a general course study till graduation, but with it gaining adoption in high schools and lesser classes, it would do greater good.
It will lessen the burden of job hunting after school, unemployment due to not finding the right job/work environment will also reduce drastically.

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

That is one way preparing for the kids to face their future life’s battles especially if they live in a country where connections could play a vital role for them to get employed. So if they don’t have connections, might as well they will stay unemployed for a certain period of time. And maybe having this idea on entrepreneurship could motivate them to start their own business so they can build a passive income even if they don’t have stable jobs that will support them. But of course, it’s crucial that they should know their business well so that their money and efforts will never put into a waste.

it is important that they know the basics of entrepreneurship before starting one, even if it is small. hence, i am with the inclusion of this course. though most schools are already integrating this in their curriculum, but maybe there's no continuity of this course as they go in the higher level of education.
it is indeed true that most college students are expected to find their own jobs and not to create their own business. i believe, we need to change that mindset.

Being an entrepreneur ables you to create your own job and your own source of income. That’s why if we can impart entrepreneurship in the young minds, particularly including it in the student’s curriculum, then it will pave way to control unemployment since being an entrepreneur alone lets you provide your own source of living. And if managed well, you can hire workers that will increase your business profits, thus making benefits for both parties.

Really entrepreneurship is basically good to be associated with as a student and also as a human being due to the norms and culture of our countries, a country that have the interest of her people in mind will not make entrepreneurship compulsory or necessary for anyone who finish from tertiary institution, from my understanding so I believe that if government should make a provision of employment or job available in the society they will be no more seriousness in entrepreneurship in someone who doesn't plan to be an entrepreneur.

I wonder what the future of African nations will look like when many of the younger generations lose interest in education because there aren't enough white-collar jobs for them to choose from once they graduate.

There will come a time when people will question the value of continuing their education after investing years and money into it only to find themselves working at a miserable job. Let them first learn a trade and earn money before going to school. Since one will continue learning a trade after graduation to support themselves,

But not many schools have given lessons on entrepreneurship and tend to follow what has been done for years. If this is the case, parents should teach entrepreneurship to their children so that they can think more creatively and critically.

If at school there is minimal knowledge about entrepreneurship, then parents can ask their children to continue studying in that major. I think there are many universities that develop entrepreneurial talent in their students, but maybe not many students are interested. There is a difference in mindset between businessmen and workers, the way they choose their educational path will determine it.

Many people are attracted to becoming entrepreneurs, but capital is a common problem that keeps the appeal from materializing. I think it is the fate of one person or another, but they all influence each other. Not everyone has to be an entrepreneur because the world needs people in all kinds of other jobs too.

If it's a college, I'm sure there must be a suitable course with entrepreneurship suitable for young people so they can get more lessons about it. And usually there will be practical lessons in big companies so that they can get real additional knowledge to add to their knowledge later.

But I think what they get from the educational path will be different from reality because we are directly faced with real everyday events so our experiences will be different and we can also learn more.

And it's true that people have always been constrained by capital problems when they want to become entrepreneurs. But some people don't want to give up because of capital problems and continue to do what they want with minimum capital. And with the support of enthusiasm and effort and hard work, what they do can develop. And we, as people who want to try, should not give up if we really want to open a business.

But not many schools have given lessons on entrepreneurship and tend to follow what has been done for years. If this is the case, parents should teach entrepreneurship to their children so that they can think more creatively and critically.

We cannot forever depend on the curriculum because we must learn to adapt to the surrounding environment when we leave school. After all, the reality is different from what is taught at school.

By getting lessons at school or home, children can be better prepared to face life when they grow up. And it can educate their independence in trying if they decide to do entrepreneurship.

Yes, I agree with you but not many schools have  giving any lessons entrepreneurship at all. Those children who have such parents who can educate them about enterreneurship at home then well and good but what about those children who doesn't have such environment at home and not getting such curriculum at school as well?

[davis196]

I believe that entrepreneurs are born, not created. I can have the best possible education at business and finance, but I know that I can't become an entrepreneur, because I'm lacking social skills, strong work ethics and the ability to take risks. I can't change who I am.
You are right about one thing. The current educational system has to be reformed, in order to better prepare the children for the problems of a complex and uncertain world. Practice is the best education. That doesn't necessarily mean that all the children have to become entrepreneurs. If you everyone becomes a business owner, who is going to work at "9-to-5" jobs?
The world also needs better workers, not just better entrepreneurs.

somehow those students that didn't receive such privilege needed to think outside of the box, and what i mean on that is they will have to get those experience and knowledge outside of the box. i'm not saying they are required or forced to do those things but as what i have observed so far, most of those who did what i said were people who have noticed how cruel their reality is, and due to that harsh reality they're facing, they find ways how they can escape that way of living. we all know that it is not only through hard work alone can someone become entreps and improve their way of living, but it is also how they perceive things and be creative to the point where they matured early and use what resources they have in hand to generate income.

Instilling an understanding of entrepreneurship from a young age is indeed a very good and appropriate step. Because in living this life it would be nice, must have a very complete provision of knowledge. Because the situation that will come to us cannot be predicted, everything is still a secret. So having a lot of expertise and a lot of innovation will definitely be very necessary. Don't just rely on a diploma you have from a school or college. Because it's all just a document, the most important thing is the knowledge and skills you have.

Because we as humans must be able to develop the abilities we have, we must continue to seek our potential.
In addition, don't just want to work for other people, but you must have the desire to be able to open jobs for other people. Use the entrepreneurial mentality to run it. Because the problem faced by many countries today is the lack of jobs. Even though many of its citizens are university graduates, there are still very few jobs in this country. Of course, the answer is clear. There will definitely still be a lot of unemployment. So it is true, the main step that must be taken for young people is to be equipped with knowledge and thoughts about entrepreneurship. So when they graduate from college these young people can become entrepreneurs, create great innovations, and turn them into brilliant businesses. Because if you just wait for the government to create jobs, it will definitely take a long time. So basically it's better to open your own business and be an independent boss. Even though at first it won't be easy, the bottom line is that have to be a person who never gives up and has a strong determination.

I gotta say, absolutely agree we need to teach the youth about entrepreneurship. And why not go all-in? Teach 'em every fantastic way to crash and burn, losing it all. Great for morale, right?

Jokes aside, not everyone's cut out to be an entrepreneur, but let's give a shot to those with the itch. And hey, who doesn't love an endless money stress and business worries marathon?

As for schooling, let's toss it out! Who needs math, science? Nah, teach 'em Instagram sales and TikTok tricks. That's real-world wisdom! In reality, though, we need a balance. Practical know-how, critical thinking, problem-solving. And let's boost creativity, innovation, not just fact cramming.

Before I graduated, it was a requirement for the program. I recall taking it as a course at the university, it was interesting because the majority of the course material focused on how to start a business in my field. It was also interesting because it taught students how to identify problems and develop solutions that will benefit many people while also generating income for themselves. Many people who have taken the course report that, despite not finding employment, they now have something to do instead of just sitting around doing nothing. it was very thoughtful of the government to have added it.

It depends on the will of the kids. If they see that they must help their parents or want to have their own money without bothering their parents, they can think more deeply about getting entrepreneurship lessons. My parents didn't teach me anything about entrepreneurship but I learned a lot from the internet because my school was limited in teaching entrepreneurship knowledge.

And I have also seen how these children can think ahead of their friends. Maybe they will be forced to be more creative than their friends when they need something. This would allow them to bring out their hidden abilities. Maybe you've seen it too.

I gotta say, absolutely agree we need to teach the youth about entrepreneurship. And why not go all-in? Teach 'em every fantastic way to crash and burn, losing it all. Great for morale, right?

I think it's better if we teach them step by step so they can digest everything we teach. It's good to tell or teach something that looks fantastic but it would be better if we also teach the truth about what happened. It will let them think about what to do.

But we still need schools to learn many things even though we can also learn independently from many places. The school will be a place for socializing which can be our provision for socializing when we grow up.

By learning many lessons from school, we can know the basics first and then learn from other places.

If everyone start thinking entrepreneurs are born, not created, then no school will be thought such curriculum anymore. Consequently, no children can be able to find out their ability to become entrepreneur and the situation will be like here in India just as MBA chai Wala, B tech Pane pure wale and graduate samosa Wala etc. This types of entrepreneur are very famous in India. These entrepreneur are not doing job according to their degree  but they are earning well. If such curriculum are thought in school then yes definitely more and more will be able to identify their social skill, strong work ethics and ability to take risk. And yes, workers are equally required apart from the entrepreneurs.

1. PREPARE STUDENTS FOR AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE.
2. LEAVE ROOM FOR CREATIVITY AND COLLABORATION.
3. TEACH PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION.
4. MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE.


CONCLUSION: World economy can be made better if more job are created. Job creation can be made easy if individuals can creat job for themselves. During this job creation, he/she will still employ some people to his/her organization, therefore helping government to solve part of the problem caused by unemployment.

one does not necessarily need an mba to be an entrepreneur. what we need is to equip students as to how day add value to real world issues. most millionaires actually were not even graduated of finish their college degree. They just nee that spark or that a hint to find their purpose. One of my professor told me this that building a business is simple. Just solve your own problem, and sell the solution of your own problem. By that, one can add value to other people's lives. as what Op said, that's how we can make the world a better place.

1. PREPARE STUDENTS FOR AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE.
👉We live in an age of unprecedented global and technological transformation. Today's students face an uncertain future full of complex global, social, and environmental issues.

Yes, this is true, but none of this will be achieved if the state does not provide facilities to implement learning materials. It should be remembered that in implementing the curriculum system in schools, it always refers to the education system needed by the state. If a country is now unable to complete its economic system and ignores an educational program, then it is useless no matter how ideal the points mentioned will still not really achieve the goals of education itself.

👉According to the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs survey, half of today's work activities could be automated by 2055, creating completely new roles, responsibilities, and challenges for the future workforce.

👉Therefore, we cannot predict exactly what our students will need to know after they graduate.

👉Entrepreneurship-focused programs teach students crucial life skills that will help them navigate this uncertain future.

👉These skills include problem-solving, teamwork, empathy, as well as learning to accept failure as a part of the growth process

To what extent are teacher resources available? Has it been legally tested in the world of education and has a license to provide learning related to technological advances and modern educational innovations? because most of them focus on goals without involving competent human resources (teachers) even at all to pay them the government cuts their monthly rations, do you think the ideals of modern education will be achieved in accordance with the curriculum made? there is no need to talk about the output of honed skills if the basics are not attended to, namely (competent teachers certified in linear sciences).

For points 2, 3 and 4 it is the same that observational learning which is supported by visual aids depends on the facilities provided and teachers who are creative in using abstract material to make it easier to understand concretely.

CONCLUSION: World economy can be made better if more job are created. Job creation can be made easy if individuals can creat job for themselves. During this job creation, he/she will still employ some people to his/her organization, therefore helping government to solve part of the problem caused by unemployment.

Great conclusion, so this is taproot economics for a term that describes how problems exist in a system of government. Doesn't the state treasury budget have a large enough allocation to disburse education funds?
Why are individuals ultimately required to create jobs? what is the use of representatives of the people? the government is paid with tax money to be able to work to serve and meet the needs of the community in outline, they are required to open as many jobs as the budgeted funds.

Exactly, schools could give students some prior knowledge and basic information about entrepreneurship but the skills itself they couldn't give it to them as we all have different creativity when it comes to business. That's why it would be better to attend seminars with known entrepreneurs itself because if teachers only teach from the book even though it was made from the entrepreneurs, still it would be better to get educated by an actual entrepreneur that's why there's a lot of them teach in some school with the same course.

Schoold teachers and entrepreneurship? They can't teach kids about entrepreneurship, they know nothing about real life. A lot of people may hate me for saying this but bunch of teachers are just losers who weren't able to succeed in life but want to have a little influence over some people and the only place for them to unleash their power is in school classes.
Watch this video, it is short but says a lot about modern world: https://clip.cafe/notorious-2009/yesterday-said-i-gonna-end-up-a-garbageman/

In school they were telling me that if I learn, I'll have a good job and I'll earn a lot of money. In real life, all I see is that footballers, basketball players, NFL players Instagram influencers, Youtubers, Gamers and some other group of people are earning so much money that educated person will never achieve their yearly salary if he works 24/7 every day during his life.

Teachers don't teach you about money and economy but you can't expect that from them, otherwise they wouldn't work for tiny salary.

In all the concepts listed it is indeed good for the growth and development of the entrepreneurship of each student, and the goal is clear to help the country in terms of economy, it is a good intention. But I doubt that all entrepreneurship curriculum is included in all education curriculum, I don't think it will work effectively in the long run, because it will affect the focus of students in increasing talents and potential in their fields.
I think that in the economics majoring in the points, the points are definitely in it, and in entrepreneurship also has quite a lot of focus branches, such as management, marketing, production, creative teams and so on, everyone must have expertise in it to shape cooperation which produces results that sell in the market.

Those are outliers, for every person that makes to the NFL, becomes a professional athlete, musician or a successful influencer, there is a whole a army of people which tried to do the same and now they have to settle for a very low salary as they failed, that being said, it is true school teachers cannot teach about a topic they know nothing about, so they cannot teach their students entrepreneurship, and since they are in their own sheltered profession they have no idea how hard it is to get and keep a job, and how much harder it is to get a high salary or create your own business.
