A percepção dos docentes acerca do empreendedorismo: um estudo de caso para Fortaleza

Abstract

Entrepreneurship in Brazil proves to be a subject still surrounded by taboos. In the quest to break down some barriers, a study on the way the subject is treated in elementary, secondary and higher education, as well as the way students view the subject can present important data for analyzing the impact of entrepreneurship on teaching base and higher in the country. For data collection, primary and secondary sources were used. The primary source consists of field research with fifteen teachers on the topic. The secondary source is summarized in articles on the Google Scholar portal; and on websites aimed at public or private entities. The general objective is to understand, through qualitative and quantitative research, the importance of applying entrepreneurship at all levels of learning; and as specific objectives, understand how this study can be carried out in basic education and in higher education in the Brazilian educational curriculum base. As a conclusion to the work, there was a consensus in the literature and among those interviewed regarding the importance of teaching entrepreneurship at all stages of school and academic life.
