Ohaio state model Abstract: Success in our global, collective future will depend on the students of today using 21st century skills to develop innovative solutions to key societal issues. Entrepreneurs, in turn, are individuals who transform these innovations into economic goods using financial and business acumen. In the long-term, the economic health of every region depends to some degree on what it does to help these individuals succeed.Entrepreneurship drives economic change and innovation while at the same time expanding opportunity and unleashing the initiative of citizens. Entrepreneurs are crucial to building prosperous societies that deliver opportunity to all. In emerging economies around the world, interest in entrepreneurship is currently higher than ever amid burgeoning youth populations and a desire to move up value chains. The empowered citizen of the 21st century not only knows how to use technology, she\he knows how to use technology to turn innovation into services, goods, or efficiencies that contribute to the local and regional economies, and perhaps most importantly the economy of her\his own home.Entrepreneurship education delivered on a foundation of 21st century skills, both within educational institutions and as a key element of lifelong learning, is necessary to drive innovation and therefore the economic health of any region.

It is also central to language teaching and is of paramount importance to a language learner. Recent research indicate that teaching vocabulary may be problematic because many teachers are not confident about best practice in vocabulary teaching and at times don?t know where to begin to form an instructional emphasis on word learning (Berne & Blachowicz, 2008)In this article, I summarizes important research on the impotence of vocabulary and explaining many techniques used by English teachers when teaching English, as well as my own personal view of these issues.

Nigeria, being the giant of Africa has the largest number of youths who are yet to be properly mobilized and empowered for gainful economic activities. This can only be tackled through entrepreneurship education which involves teaching and learning of the needed skills and knowledge that equip one to become self-reliant through being an effective and successful initiator, manager, innovator and risk bearer of business undertakings. Unemployed youths should be encouraged to acquire skills that will be applied to economic activities on graduation from requisite compulsory training while those who are still in school should be made to offer entrepreneurship courses that would prepare them to embark on small and medium-scale enterprises, which have significant roles to play in the development of any economy. Therefore, this paper discusses entrepreneurship education and unemployment reduction in Nigeria, problems facing entrepreneurship education and its graduate and ways of addressing this problem so that our national and human resources will be properly employed for economic emancipation, so as to turn our youths into job creators and not job seekers.

Students are often caught between the potentially conflicting roles of fitting into a perceived CYC identity archetype and developing their personal approach to CYC praxis. This qualitative study examined the ways in which CYC students perceive and experience constructs of identity in the field of CYC as well as the ways that they respond internally to such constructs. The research design utilized creative modes of inquiry both in the processes by which the research was conducted and in the methods used to represent research data. The combination of traditional data collection strategies with arts-based presentation methods provided the participants a powerful learning experience by opening up a meaning-making space. This meaning making generated important insights into and understandings of the politics of identity in relation to the development of the participants? unique sense of CYC praxis.
