Abstract

The present study seeks to explain the elements of technological entrepreneurship curriculum in elementary school. This research was done through a qualitative approach and a systematic review method. The data were analyzed using specialized keywords related to the technology entrepreneurship curriculum and their search in valid scientific databases as well as library studies until March 2021. Finally, 44 sources were analyzed and coded and the findings indicated that technology entrepreneurship curriculum emphasized education of students' technological entrepreneurship qualifications in the goal component, a combination of theory and practice in the content component, practical and problem-based activities in the component of learning activitie, action-oriented and authentic education in the component of learning strategies; also it highlighted "evaluation for learning" in the field of evaluation. In the end, it is concluded that the technological entrepreneurship curriculum will be the main need of elementary school students to create jobs and develop knowledge-based and technology businesses.
