Often, entrepreneurship education has been defined in a political level and through economic ideologies. However, one of the goals of entrepreneurship education is to achieve entrepreneurial ways of acting regardless of the context or community. This study is a case study of the implementation of entrepreneurship education in music education in basic education. The findings introduce and evaluate the pedagogical solutions in the music education of one Finnish seventh grade. The pupils were given opportunities to set their own goals, experiment multiple options, make decisions and reflect on their actions. They were encouraged and guided to become aware of their entrepreneurial features, skills, and ways of acting. The most important result was that entrepreneurial education can be included in basic education. Suggestions for teachers are given based on the findings. }, keywords = {basic education, entrepreneurship education, music education}, issn = {1822-7864}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.33225/pec/14.59.34}, url = {http://oaji.net/articles/2014/457-1420361861.pdf}, author = {Lenita Hietanen and Satu Uusiautti and Kaarina M{\"a}{\"a}tt{\"a}} }
