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.

Key insights

  • Digital entrepreneurship is a transformative force affecting economies, labor markets, and educational expectations globally.
  • Initial teacher education (ITE) programs have shown a slow response in integrating digital entrepreneurship.
  • A systematic review analyzed 37 peer-reviewed sources from 2015-2025 to examine curriculum integration.
  • The review focused on the extent of integration and its implications for curriculum design in teacher preparation.
  • Four interrelated themes emerged from the thematic analysis of the retained sources.
