Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to investigate entrepreneurship pedagogy to enhance entrepreneurship intention among secondary school students. Research methodology: The researchers self-administered 100 questionnaires to educators in secondary schools in Gweru Urban Schools, obtaining a response rate of 92%. Quantitative data were analyzed using regression to establish a relationship between entrepreneurship pedagogy and entrepreneurship intention. Results: Results showed that entrepreneurship Experiential learning was positively correlated with entrepreneurship intention. In addition, the results showed that entrepreneurship design thinking, problem-based learning, and collaborative pedagogy were positively correlated with entrepreneurship intention. Limitations: This study faced methodological constraints because it used a population from an urban setting. However, further studies covering developing countries in Africa are recommended.   Contribution:  This study contributes to policy and curriculum changes in the way entrepreneurship pedagogies are implemented in developing countries. Novelty: This study integrates entrepreneurship pedagogies applicable to entrepreneurship education to achieve entrepreneurship intention in secondary schools in developing countries using Sociocultural Theory.

Abstract

Purpose: The literature reveals that emerging markets experience high unemployment rates. However, tertiary institutions continue to chant out a large number of graduates, increasing the rate of unemployment. Regardless of the tertiary institutions introducing entrepreneurship education, graduates continue to seek employment instead of creating it. This study analyses the introduction of entrepreneurship education in secondary schools to create entrepreneurship intentions in students. Research Methodology:  The researcher adopted an interpretative paradigm that advocates a qualitative approach. The study face-to-face interviewed 17 head teachers from secondary schools in the Mashonaland West Province.  This study thematically deduces entrepreneurship teaching methods, entrepreneurship content, and entrepreneurship assessment methods as sub-concepts that, if implemented, lead to entrepreneurship intention. Results: The researcher established that entrepreneurship education leads to entrepreneurship intentions if introduced in secondary schools. However, it requires commitment from policy designers and implementers to achieve the intended goals.  This study recommends the adoption of entrepreneurship education based on a funding model supported by stakeholders, including financial institutions and the government. Limitations: The study had a methodological limitation in that the sample size was small (17 head teachers). Contributions: This study contributes to educational policy changes through the introduction of entrepreneurship education and its curriculum. Novelty: This study analyzed the implementation of entrepreneurship education in secondary schools as a vehicle to solve the unemployment challenge.
