Entrepreneurship Education in Mathematics Education for Future Primary School Teachers

Abstract

Teachers act as role models and through their activities are active co-designers of future generations. Independent thinking and taking responsible, sustainable actions form the basis for a vibrant society. Entrepreneurship skills can already be fostered in primary school children. This requires well-trained primary school teachers. The following text deals with the contents of “Entrepreneurship Education and Mathematics” , which the curriculum provides for primary school children as well as for students of primary school education. In a case study the author describes the implementation of a course at the University College of Teacher Education Vienna/Krems as taught since 2015.
