Experience in implementing educational projects for the development of entrepreneurship in secondary schools

Training Russian entrepreneurs capable of generating the innovative approaches to the implementation of national and federal projects is an important task for increasing the efficiency of the economic system in the foreseeable future. Teaching entrepreneurship in secondary school and the development of entrepreneurial competencies among schoolchildren, starting from grades 6-7 in Russian secondary schools, is a necessary stage in achieving that goal. The authors have analyzed the current experience and the first results of the implementation of the pilot educational project “Small Academy of Economics, Finance and Law” that was implemented by the teachers of the Institute of Social and Humanitarian Education of the Moscow State Pedagogical University in early 2020. The target audience of this project was school students of grades 7-9 of educational institutions of secondary education in Moscow. The article reveals some didactic aspects of the entrepreneurial education and promising directions for improving the process of teaching entrepreneurship, taking into account the specifics and capabilities of secondary schools. The main methods used in the present study were methods of observation, conversation, synthesis, expert assessment. As a result of the analysis of the experience of teaching entrepreneurship in secondary school conclusions about the advisability of using the system-activity approach and contextual approach to organizing the cognitive activity of the school students were drawn by authors. To improve the educational process the authors have proposed to develop a standard program of entrepreneurship for the extra-time activities for educational organizations of secondary education and educational guidelines for teachers and schoolchildren. The article emphasizes that the experience of that project should be replicated as part of the interaction of universities and educational organizations of secondary education in all subjects of the Russian Federation.
