PREPARING FUTURE TECHNOLOGY TEACHERS FOR DEVELOPING ENTREPRENEURIAL COMPETENCE IN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

The article examines the issue of preparing future technology teachers to develop entrepreneurial competence in high school students. The relevance of this problem is due to the need to integrate entrepreneurial education into general secondary education institutions, which will help develop skills in students that are necessary for effective activity in the modern economic environment. The authors analyze the role of technology teachers in the process of forming entrepreneurial competence in students, emphasizing the importance of developing not only theoretical knowledge but also practical skills for effectively teaching high school students. In particular, the article focuses on the necessity of preparing future teachers to use interactive teaching methods, such as business simulations, role-playing games, and case studies, which allow students in pedagogical universities to practically master methods of developing entrepreneurial skills in high school students. It is determined that these methods not only promote the development of students' critical thinking but also help them develop practical skills in business management, financial planning, marketing, and management processes. The article places great emphasis on the integration of entrepreneurial education into the training system for future technology teachers, as these educators have the most significant influence on the formation of entrepreneurial competence and economic literacy in high school students. A number of recommendations are proposed to improve the training programs for these specialists, including the study of the basics of entrepreneurial activity, business planning, and financial literacy, as well as the integration of modern methodologies aimed at developing entrepreneurial skills in high school students within general secondary education institutions. The scientific findings presented in the article may be useful for researchers, teachers in higher pedagogical education institutions, as well as methodologists involved in the development and improvement of programs for training future technology teachers. It will also be beneficial for educational managers who aim to integrate entrepreneurial competence into the educational process for high school students in Ukraine, as well as for educators who wish to expand their knowledge and skills in entrepreneurial education.
