Abstract: This article studies the field of entrepreneurship and education with respect to changes in the university context. It is our claim that the educational system at the university level at present is not capable of developing students' motivation, competences and skills concerning innovation and entrepreneurship. Instead, entrepreneurship education requires learning methods, pedagogical processes and frames for education, which universities at the moment have not mastered, Such changes, however, involve parallel transformations of didactics, pedagogy and university context.

Keywords: pedagogy; didactics; learning; teaching; university context; entrepreneurial university; entrepreneurship education; enterprising behaviour; innovation; entrepreneurship courses. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
