NOORAIN MOHD NORDIN UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI MARA, KAMPUS BANDARAYA MELAKA

Entrepreneurship education in Malaysian primary schools remains fragmented, with activities conducted as isolated events and school facilities underutilised as learning resources. Usahawan Cilik was developed as an Integrated Teaching Aid that transforms school agro projects into entrepreneurial learning experiences. Initiated in experiential learning principles, it integrates teacher guides, entrepreneurship activities, financial literacy exercises, marketing tasks, assessment instruments and student sales record books within a single pedagogical framework. Implementation with 20 pupils at Sekolah Kebangsaan Padang Temu, Melaka, demonstrated improvements in engagement, entrepreneurial awareness, communication, teamwork and financial literacy. The copyright-registered teaching aid offers a scalable, low-cost solution for primary schools.
