Entrepreneurial education - exploring teachers’ creativity in 11 countries

Creativity is considered as one of the main entrepreneurial skills next to leadership and risk taking. Teach-ers as role models are becoming more aware of the changes needed within themselves and their classrooms and precisely their perception of importance of creativity and innovativeness (C&I) in teaching is the focus of this research. Th e views of teachers (N=149) from 11 countries (Germany, UK, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Slovenia, Portugal, Ireland, France, Spain and Albania) are researched and compared. Th e theoretical background of the paper explains the connection between creativity and entrepreneurial education and provides a sound rationale for reinforcing and emphasizing creativity as a needed entre-preneurial skill in both teachers and students. Th e fi ndings of this paper will hopefully encourage teachers to participate in teacher training in C&I and can help raise teachers’ awareness of the obstacles to C&I in classrooms across Europe.
