Develop appropriate teaching and learning strategies in enterprise and entrepreneurship education
Overview
This standard is about developing appropriate teaching and learning strategies, or pedagogies, for enterprise and entrepreneurship education curricula. It requires you to understand the advantages and disadvantages of different approaches to teaching enterprise and entrepreneurship education, develop appropriate learning outcomes, identify the needs of learners and select appropriate strategies which will meet the learning outcomes and the needs of the learners.
For the purposes of this standard, enterprise and entrepreneurship education refers to the process of equipping learners with an enhanced capacity, ideas and skills to make ideas happen, whether it is in the context of starting and running a business or working for someone else. Enterprise refers to a set of personal abilities, skills and behaviours which can be used in a variety of different contexts whilst entrepreneurship refers to an individual or group of individuals creating, developing and managing a new venture. Institution refers to the organisation you work in, whether this is a school, further education college, higher education institution or private training provider.
This standard is recommended for individuals involved in the design, development and delivery of enterprise and entrepreneurship education curricula in schools, colleges, higher education institutions and other education contexts.
