Abstract

This chapter contributes to the debate around whether acquiring entrepreneurial competencies is the main driver of the promotion and development of an entrepreneurial spirit and a sense of initiative. To do this, this chapter investigates the effects of early entrepreneurship education in non-cognitive entrepreneurial skills, such as creativity, innovation, risk taking, and other relevant soft skills. Specifically, this chapter examines the preliminary results of action research carried out on primary school students. The findings of this research reveal interesting insights and shed light on new teaching methods and perspectives that create a funny learning environment enriched by a cooperative climate and proactive behaviors in children.
