Project Summary
CONTEXT:
– Students have the ability to create ideas, but their transformation into creative and entrepreneurial individuals is
a process that must be guided. As partners of this project we chose this topic because the development of
entrepreneurial skills in our time is one of the key roles in the employment of young people. Increasingly
innovative individuals and creative entrepreneurship qualities constitute the driving force in social development.
Our current education system needs support to adapt entrepreneurship education since traditional methods of
education at our schools put the people in a frame and very often they find a secure job that does not boost their
creativity potential, loosing their creativity, innovation capabilities and courage to set up their own business.
Creative thinking is the must have “skill” of an entrepreneur for the creation of new ideas. Creativity will allow
students to devise interesting processes, which gives so many advantages to entrepreneurs. It is the ability to
develop new ideas and to discover new ways of looking at problems and opportunities.
Students will learn about specifics of local economies, meet entrepreneurs and visit local businesses, producing
innovative business ideas and creating their own small start up business suitable for the local economies of the
partner schools which will then be adapted to students’ own local needs.
NEEDS:
– to develop students’ creative entrepreneurial mindset developing joint business ideas, thus improving the
transition to the business world,
– to improve the soft skills of students in order to facilitate their professional development – critical and analytical
thinking, communication, creativity , thus improving their transition to the world of work,
– to improve students’ self-confidence in unfamiliar contexts and their language skills,
– to improve the school’s European dimension through collaboration with other schools and transfer of best
practices,
– to expand the knowledge and understanding regarding 21st century skills, creativity and entrepreneurship of the
educational practices of the involved countries.
OBJECTIVES:
The goal of this project is to establish an entrepreneurship ecosystem in secondary education by developing a
creative and entrepreneurship management model for schools in order to promote creativity and entrepreneurship
culture among pupils. The model will ensure that the ideas of the students are transformed into values and they
will be able to be creative young people who can set up their own small business and contribute to the
development of the local economies of their countries.
