Abstract
This concluding chapter focuses on the future of teaching and learning in enterprise and entrepreneurship education in relation to the adoption of technology. Based on the previous chapters in this dedicated text, it is evident that the adoption of technology will play an important role in the development of teaching and learning pedagogies in this discipline. Building on the key learning outcomes and points that have been discussed, a consensus centring on six points on enterprise and entrepreneurship education have been presented. This ranges from the importance of entrepreneurship education in the development of economic prosperity, enhancing individual learner's knowledge of enterprise and business start-up, cultivating unique skills for creative thought, recognizing and acting upon commercial opportunities, and developing learner's confidence to deal with uncertain futures. The evidence suggests that there will be a significant shift towards gamification and simulations, embedding digital technology for quiz activities, reflective practices, measuring the effectiveness of learning programmes, collaborative and interdisciplinary approaches, and the pertinence of knowledge co-creation. This chapter emphasizes the importance of pedagogy that is underpinned by technology adoption, creative approaches to teaching and learning, student-centred learning, flipped classroom approaches, engagement with entrepreneurs, and the focus on tangible outcomes of enterprise and entrepreneurship education provisions. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.
