Abstract

Over the years, Nigerians are faced economic hardship which requires structural reforms and adjustment in education. However, Entrepreneurship is encouraged because it could lead to self-employment and ensure that business ventures continue to be in operation. If Nigerians wants to encourage entrepreneurship, they should be encouraged to study business education. The challenges educators face in the 21st century are so diverse in such a way that using better teaching methods is more crucial now than ever before to facilitate the process of knowledge transmission. Owing to the inappropriateness of the traditional methods of teaching in the present day teaching, this study reviews the application of multiple intelligence instructional strategy as an alternative method of teaching Business Education which guides curriculum structure and lesson planning to include the importance of teaching the subject matter through a variety of activities and projects. Multiple intelligence teaching strategy was found to affect the success and permanence of the business education students in class. Thus, the study recommends that the teaching method should be incorporated into teaching students in the class.
