Abstract

The article reveals why it is important to discuss the proper development of entrepreneurship learning methods. Learning methods to develop entrepreneurship are presented as well as systematic review of scientific experience provided in this regard. The methods we recommend to use for entrepreneurship learning are described. The aim of the article is to discuss existing and recommended learning techniques to develop entrepreneurship. Object of the article is the learning methods of entrepreneurship education. An analysis of this question is particularly relevant as the recent European Commission and other European documents stress the need to focus on development and discussion of proper learning techniques for entrepreneurship education. The researchers note that choice of learning methods is the sensitive issue because of the heterogeneity of the concept of entrepreneurship itself and of different concepts of entrepreneurship education
