ENTERPRISING EDUCATION CONCEPTS
He summarises the reasons why people need to be enterprising.
People need enterprise to set up business; manage work, projects and organisations – and to satisfy personal ambitions and cope with hardship. Securing our environment, maintaining peace and defeating poverty also requires enterprise. Above all, we need enterprising skills to deal with change – particularly our young, who risk being overwhelmed by the increasing uncertainty of a future rushing towards them.
To help our pupils to become enterprising, we educators need to ‘teach’ in a more enterprising manner.
This means to a greater degree students use initiative, resourcefulness and other enterprising skills in the very way they learn and we teach, most of the time. And they must be surrounded by enterprising role models/teachers and organisations/schools.
