| 520 | |a Introduction of Entrepreneurship education in schools was considered a significant factor for repositioning individuals to create employment opportunities and contribute to national development in Nigeria. However, values degeneration in society is seen as one of the limitations to the achievement of this reform. This paper is therefore concerned with the importance of entrepreneurship education in youth empowerment such as startups, self-employment, individuals’ economic reward, and satisfaction among others. More so, challenges of entrepreneurship education such as poor entrepreneurial attitude, low morale for skills acquisition and self-employment were discussed. Furthermore, the roles of social studies in entrepreneurship education in the promotion of students’ self - concepts and human relation skills; and development of the students' socio-political and moral insights were discussed. Suggestions were made on value re-orientation through effective teaching of social studies education at upper basic education and teacher education. Also, pre-service social studies teachers should be exposed to active learning strategies such as educational visits, inquiry, and value clarification and, so on, if the reform would bring desire impact on national development. | ||
