Citizenship, Enterprise and Learning by Ross Deuchar

Citizenship, Enterprise and Learning by Ross Deuchar

This book is the first to explore the relationship between enterprise and citizenship education. It considers the renewed focus on values and democracy in education and the widening of the enterprise agenda in theoretical and practical terms. What is the relationship between enterprise education and third way politics and communitarianism? How can conceptualizations of enterprise education be made to engage pupils?
The book combines theoretical discussion with compelling research evidence from a Scottish-based study. Case studies of teachers' practice and pupils' perceptions illustrate the ways enterprise education can lend itself to the expression of citizenship and democracy in schools. The evidence indicates useful principles that can be applied to wider contexts.
The book will be essential reading for academics engaged in promoting and developing enterprise education and education for citizenship programs in initial teacher education courses. It will also interest teachers and student teachers, as well as the developers of curriculum policy.
