through a Chart;
2. explained and be guided by the different learning theories needed in teaching EPP in the K-
12 Curriculum through a Group Reporting activity; and
3. explained the Importance of Edukasyong Pantahanan at Pangkabuhayan with
Entrepreneurship in the K-12 Curriculum through a video clip.

INTRODUCTION

While the society all around is developing with technology and innovations, the K-12 schools
have been in a stagnant scenario. Education is the driving force behind every country’s economy,
directly or indirectly. Sure, many schools have adapted to modernization, and have started making
students work in groups to solve problems, learn online and integrate science with arts. But it is
noticed even then; students that are graduating lack the advanced skills and innovative thinking to
work through the modern-day challenges in the workplace. Thus, entrepreneurship, the capacity to
not only starts companies, but also to think creatively and ambitiously, is very important to be
included in school curriculum.

Entrepreneurship education aids students from all socioeconomic backgrounds to think outside
the box and nurture unconventional talents and skills. It creates opportunities, ensures social justice,
instills confidence and stimulates the economy. Entrepreneurship education is a lifelong learning
process, starting as early as elementary school and progressing through all levels of education,
including adult education.

Introducing young kids to entrepreneurship develops their initiative and helps them to be more
creative and self-confident in whatever they undertake and to act in a socially responsible way.

Guided Definitions:

Industrial Arts has an important role to play as part of general education in our modern society.
Each day our world becomes more mechanized and technical with the invention and production of
more labor-saving devices. Many tradesmen and technicians are needed to install, operate, and
service these modern pieces of equipment.
1. Is a skilled trade and a craft in which the primary work performed is the cutting, shaping and
installation of building materials during the construction of buildings, ships, timber bridges,
concrete formwork, etc.

2. May be defined as the practice, materials, and fixtures used in installing, maintaining, and altering
piping, fixtures, appliances, and appurtenances in connection with sanitary or storm drainage
facilities, a venting system, and public or private water supply systems.

3. Is the study of how to control the flow of electrons . It deals with circuits that are made with parts
called components and connecting wires that control the flow of electricity and direct it to do useful
things.

4. Is the process of shaping and reshaping metals to create useful objects, parts, assemblies, and
large-scale structures. As a term it covers a wide and diverse range of processes, skills, and tools for
producing objects on every scale: from huge ships, buildings, and bridges down to precise engine
parts and delicate jewelry.

5. Is defined as something related to electricity, which is energy resulting from charged particles.
When a wire carries electric current to your television or refrigerator, this is an example of an
electrical wire.

6. Are a very common style of drawing and are easily created with AutoCAD.

Home Economics Is a field of study that is primarily concerned with strengthening family life and
increasing productivity of individuals in the social economy. It synthesizes knowledge from arts and
science-based disciplines to improve manipulative skills, organizational skills and social skills (James,
2003).

1. Eating a well-balanced diet, with adequate nutrients and appropriate calories, is a fundamental
requirement for continued health. An appropriate diet contributes to healthy development, healthy
ageing and greater resilience against disease.

2. Is the financial management which an individual or a family unit performs to budget, save, and
spend monetary resources over time, taking into account various financial risks and future life events

3. Is about the design, manufacture and marketing of clothing and footwear and other textile products.

4. Is a social discipline that focuses on the interaction between people and the environment .

5. Management refers to the various tasks and chores associated with the organization, financial
management, and day-to-day operations of a home.

6. Is defined as the process of enlarging people's freedoms and opportunities and improving their
well-being.

Agriculture is the science and art of cultivating plants and livestock. Agriculture was the key
development in the rise of sedentary human civilization, whereby farming of domesticated species
created food surpluses that enabled people to live in cities.

1. Livestock is commonly defined as domesticated animals raised in an agricultural setting to produce

labor and commodities such as meat, eggs, milk, fur, leather, and wool.

2. Is an applied field of economics concerned with the application of economic theory in optimizing
the production and distribution of food and fiber.

3. Irrigated farm areas mainly grow rice and sugarcane whereas rained areas are planted with
coconut, corn and cassava.

4. Is a term used to describe the wide type of production practices employed by American farmers.
Theories of Entrepreneurship it is a universal fact that entrepreneurship is an important factor in
economic development. An entrepreneur is the risk bearer and works under uncertainty. But no
attempts were made by economists for formulating systematic theory of entrepreneurship. According
to William J. Baumol, the economic theory has failed to provide a satisfactory analysis of either the
role of the entrepreneurship or its supply.

1. Has deep roots in the classical and neoclassical theories of economics, and the Austrian market
process (AMP). These theories explore the economic factors that enhance entrepreneurial behavior.

2. Theory is the third of the major entrepreneurship theories. Sociological enterprise focuses on the
social context. In other words, in the sociological theories the level of analysis is traditionally the
society (Landstrom, 1998).

3. The level of analysis in psychological theories is the individual (Landstrom, 1998). These theories
emphasize personal characteristics that define entrepreneurship.

4. Plants are autotrophic and therefore they fix the energy of the sun and manufacture food from
simple inorganic substances for almost all other organisms through photosynthesis. Crop plants have
a wide range of development and growth responses to sunlight, day length, temperature, nutrients,
and water supply.

5. Is anchored by names such as Peter Drucker and Howard Stevenson. An opportunity-based

approach provides a wide-ranging conceptual framework for entrepreneurship research (Fiet, 2002;
Shane, 2000).

6. Entrepreneurship argues that access to resources by founders is an important predictor of

opportunity-based entrepreneurship and new venture growth (Alvarez & Busenitz, 2001).
