Curriculum implementation, entrepreneurship motivation, and fashion entrepreneurship - case study of student learning outcomes in regular classes and entrepreneurship classes

ABSTRACT

Vocational High School (VHS) faces the challenge of producing graduates whose competencies match the requirements of business actors in Indonesia. This study analysed learning activities that involved entrepreneurship classes and regular courses. Data were analysed statistically using ANCOVA to test learning outcomes and their effects on entrepreneurship motivation. The results of the study show that students from entrepreneurship classes achieved better learning outcomes than students from regular classes, and students from entrepreneurship classes have higher levels of entrepreneurship motivation compared to students from regular classes. Moreover, the fashion entrepreneurship curriculum had a significant influence on the learning outcomes of fashion entrepreneurship lessons and the levels of entrepreneurship motivation. The results of this study would have important government policy implications in the education sector for fashion entrepreneurship.
