Ask HN: How would you design a Technology/Entrepreneur class for high school?

I am trying to design a Technology/Entrepreneur course for a rural high school. I know HN focuses more on building businesses using technology, than building content businesses, but I'm not sure teaching every kid how to program would work. I have a few kids, that I will be working with separately and will probably follow the traditional HN path with. For everyone else I have this as a rough outline:

Assumptions:

1a. Rural America suffers from brain drain where talented people leave to find economic leverage elsewhere. 1b. Rural America can cheat and bring economic leverage back to rural America by using technology and the internet (this post is an example of that). 2. College doesn't make sense for an increasing number of students. Schools must provide options for those students for whom college doesn't make sense and working in a factory doesn't make a lot of sense either. 3. Rural America needs entrepreneurs to build sustainable, technology driven businesses with global reach to remain viable.

Class 1.

   * Develop and Design a website that supports the school and other organizations and groups in the community.
   * Learn Wordpress, become familiar with online writing, develop a better understanding of how internet publishing works.
   * Create Link Bait(?)
   * Briefly touch on css/xhtml as is needed in their work.
   * Learn how to find information they need on google, and use that to be productive.

Class 2.

   * Study Business Models (pay per click, impression, affiliate marketing, etc)  and Economics through the lense of the online world. 
   * Do case studies on online businesses. Wine Library, Gizmondo, lifehacker, etc, etc.
   * Read the books Crush IT and Rework
   * Brain storm ideas and then get involved in communities/forums about what they think their business will be tangentially related to.  Develop relationships.

Class 3.

   * Form Partnerships, Give out Shares to Advisors, etc, etc.
   * Write Marketing/Business Plan, Conduct Market Research.
   * Start to build their content based business.

Class 4.

   * Hopefully, a few students have worked on it over the summer (probably have a meeting once a week for students that want to keep keep moving) and this will motivate the others who didn't.
   * They should now be able to contact sponsors, build advertisment, write link bait, etc, etc.

What am I forgetting, what should I include, what should I leave out?

If you were doing this how would you do it?
