The concept of entrepreneurship can be achieved properly by students because the theme or the economic title is described in various aspects of its importance and also the weakness by the teacher who teaches the subject of history. Through the economic title that contained in the historical curriculum, various economic activities that have become historical materials are taught by historical teachers. The finding shows that there is a lack in the context of the ability of students to study the economic theme as most respondents only master the historical facts and use less of these facts to see the importance of learning the economic themes in historical learning. There are respondents who just state that with a business can generate wealth. However, respondents are less likely to say about raw materials that can be created on different forms of goods through creative ideas.
