Abstract

Trends in entrepreneurship education have been the focus of this research. Numerous recent trends have included the expansion of entrepreneurship education across primary, secondary, high, and higher schools. The increase of the implementation of the new teaching approach in education programs and teaching activities worldwide and the growth of entrepreneurship education across all the levels within educational systems are also mentioned. Entrepreneurship education is believed to be one of the most appropriate approaches that encourage students to develop useful professional skills that could be helpful both in everyday life and career. Thus this paper aims to review the general knowledge base regarding the recommendation by reporting the reasons activated the interest in entrepreneurship in education, as it is a kind of innovation in professional non-economic education and is not popular among school teachers and university lecturers. The authors underline that multidisciplinary teaching techniques are becoming more popular as they explore a recent tendency of universities to create a new curriculum for entrepreneurship and innovation activities for professional subjects. The paper begins by considering so-called Clip-thinking researches as this specific mindset is thought to be one of the urgent reasons that make it necessary to work out the entrepreneurship approach in teaching. It then considers some literature that can be used in teaching English both everyday and professional, the design and construction of which is identified by the demands of Clip-thinking peculiarities. Then the researchers inform why and how entrepreneurship approach should be implemented in teaching professional English for Maritime engineers and how the creation of such activities can be ‘successful’. There is also presented a list of pedagogical approaches to be used in the classroom and in outclass activities. The goals of the above mentioned educational approach are enlisted as well.
