Abstract

Entrepreneurship as a strong economic force plays an important role in self-employment and unemployment reduction. Entrepreneurship education can have an effective role in promoting entrepreneurship in society. Some potential entrepreneurs are high school students and hence, entrepreneurship education should begin at an early age to induce entrepreneurial attitudes in students. In this study, the authors tried to extract the attitudes of female students in vocational-technical high schools in Iran towards the entrepreneurship learning outcomes using UNESCO’S four pillars of education and in the fields of learning to know, learning to do, learning to be, and learning to live together. These attitudes were drawn using a mind map. The results can help to improve and strengthen the students' attitudes towards entrepreneurship subjects as well as to eliminate the shortcomings in the entrepreneurship education methods in the schools. The statistical population of the study consisted of 12th-grade female students in vocational-technical high schools in Tehran who had successfully passed the entrepreneurship course.

Key words: Entrepreneurship education, Entrepreneurial mindset, High school, Learning outcomes, Learning to know, Learning to do, Learning to be, Learning to live together.
