The Development of Entrepreneurs through Vocational Education. Introduction to Entrepreneurship. Modularized Instructional Units.
Kalangi, Christopher J.; And Others
Designed for first year students in postsecondary technical schools, this curriculum guide, comprising 22 modularized instructional subunits, is designed to create among the students (1) an awareness of the phenomenon of entrepreneurship, (2) motivation for exploring entrepreneurship as a distinct career option, (3) acquaintance with the skills, knowledges, and attitudes required of an entrepreneur, and (4) an insight into the problems and prospects inherent in entrepreneurship. Each of the 22 subunits is organized in four major units: Concept Factors, Personal Factors, World Factors, and Managerial Transition Factors. The subunits are designed to be taught in forty-four 50-minute sessions. However, the authors note that they are flexible to the extent that they can be taught in 40 sessions or spread over 48 or 50 sessions. (A 2-week orientation to the teaching of entrepreneurship is recommended for teachers who intend to use this curriculum.) Each unit begins with a brief introduction describing its major topics. With one exception, each subunit is designed to cover a single topic, which is described in the student objective for that subunit. Each subunit includes overall and enabling objectives, resources, information for the teacher on advance preparation, instructional activities, recommended class time, and a bibliography. (SH)
