Paper Abstract:
|
Currently much importance is given to entrepreneurship in the economic development of the countries. Also, in the
educational system (from primary school to college) value is given to the teaching of entrepreneurship concepts through
many initiatives spread throughout the world. However, in primary school these initiatives are still rare, and this is a
context where we consider the existence of potential for exploration. It is our aim to support entrepreneurship education
at the primary levels through use of computer software, specifically Three-Dimensional Collaborative Virtual
Environments.
In this article, we present the status of entrepreneurship teaching in primary education, and some cases of
entrepreneurship teaching in the education of children, as well as some examples of Three-Dimensional Collaborative
Virtual Environments employed in the education of children. |
