A systematic review of peer-reviewed literature from 2015-2025 reveals that initial teacher education (ITE) programs have been slow to integrate digital entrepreneurship into their curricula. This trend is significant given digital entrepreneurship's transformative impact on economies, labor markets, and educational expectations. The review identifies key themes regarding its integration and implications for curriculum design, based on an analysis of 37 sources.
Why it matters
The slow integration of digital entrepreneurship into initial teacher education represents a significant gap in preparing future educators for evolving global economies and labor markets. Addressing this gap is critical for ensuring that educational systems can equip students with relevant skills and mindsets for future success and innovation.
