Educators and activists: educating for life through work in work integration enterprises
2018
Este artículo se centra en el derecho a la educación para personas que viven en contextos de vulnerabilidad, en sintonía pero diferente a la aproximación de Escudero: en primer lugar, es una mirada sobre la educación no de jóvenes sino de personas adultas, muchas de ellas con trayectorias educativas truncadas, y todas ellas tras haber pasado por situaciones vitales que bien pueden calificarse de marginación y exclusión. En segundo lugar, ofrece una mirada a la práctica educativa en un contexto no escolar, sino productivo, ya que pone el foco de atención sobre el aprendizaje, tanto intencional como informal, que tiene lugar en empresas de inserción. En tercer lugar, nuestra perspectiva es la…
Con "d" de "dual": investigación sobre la implantación del sistema dual en la formación profesional en España
2017
En el presente artículo, exponemos los principales resultados de la investigación que hemos llevado a cabo sobre el proceso de implantación de la formación profesional dual en la totalidad de los ciclos de dicha etapa en España, al amparo de un proyecto europeo de transferencia de innovación. La metodología utilizada es la cuantitativa. Se realizaron y se validaron dos cuestionarios dirigidos a la dirección y al profesorado tutor de formación profesional dual en un universo de 456 centros que desarrollaban esta modalidad en España en 2015. Las encuestas fueron respondidas por un total de 179 centros de formación profesional pertenecientes a 16 comunidades autónomas. De estos centros, 136 co…
Technical secondary education in Togo and Cameroon : Research Note
1990
International audience; This paper presents an evaluation of technical secondary education in Togo and Cameroon from the labor market perspective using tracer study data. Individuals face great difficulties in finding a job following training and the most common strategy used to avoid unemployment is to secure work in the informal sector. However, informal sector jobs provide low earnings and there appears to be a large discrepancy between an individual's expected earnings and actual earnings. One solution is to stimulate, and to enhance the role of, informal training through apprentice training centers.
Accreditation of Learning and Vocational Qualifications
2019
This chapter deals with professional qualification accreditation processes. We focus on the recognition of work experience and non-formal training paths recently developed in Spain. The chapter aims to provide a comprehensive view of the accreditation procedures and to what extent their promotion has changed the panorama and the set of rules that regulate the VET system. The author looks at the ways formal elements of the procedure are structured, their explicit functions, the rules and relations upheld by legislation, as well as the recognition of learning through the analysis of governance management. The findings are framed within European, Spanish and local legislation with regard to th…
Learning about Students’ Receiving Special Educational Support Experiences of Qualification, Socialization and Subjectification in Finnish Vocational…
2022
This paper airs the experiences of eighteen students with special educational needs completing their studies at a Finnish vocational institution, which has a mandate to provide intensive special support for the students. It contributes to the national and international discussion of education’s purposes and elaborates on students’ descriptions. The study frames a research question: To what extent are Biesta’s domains of good education—qualification, socialization, and subjectification—audible in the narratives of Finland’s VET special educational needs students? The paper adopts a narrative approach and uses narrative positioning analysis as a methodical …
INVESTING IN SKILLS AND INNOVATION – NEW STRATEGIC TASKS FOR PUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONS
2014
Evidence shows that in the labour market the most demanded specialists are those with high-level vocational skills, implying also their competence for innovation. The latest EU policy initiatives explicitly call for innovation in vocational education and training (VET) systems. This is a relatively new VET policy development. At the same time, it is not yet sufficiently discussed how innovation in VET systems could be best translated in practical terms. Traditionally innovation has been related to the research and development domain, and little routine practices exist regarding the VET system. The present paper will explore the opinions and estimations by public administrators and experts r…
Propuesta de indicadores del proceso de enseñanza/aprendizaje en la formación profesional en un contexto de gestión de calidad total
2014
Se propone una batería de indicadores del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje diseñados para la práctica cotidiana de la evaluación interna de un centro de formación profesional que permita valorar la eficacia del proceso de E/A y el desarrollo de los factores que influyen en él. Al mismo tiempo, se proponen fórmulas para ajustar algunos indicadores globales que permitan valorar la eficacia del funcionamiento del centro con independencia de los factores externos más relevantes. Los indicadores propuestos pretenden obtener información diferenciada que permita tomar decisiones para mejorar de forma continua el funcionamiento del centro, detectando los factores que actúan como limitantes de los b…
Recurrence Quantification Analysis as a Methodological Innovation for School Improvement Research
2021
Contains fulltext : 240653.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) School improvement and educational change can be facilitated by learning through reflection, as this allows teachers to discover ways to develop and adapt to change. Higher levels of engagement in reflection have been found to be beneficial, but it is unclear from which everyday routine in engagement in reflection higher levels arise, and thus whether occasions to make knowledge explicit should be organized with a certain constancy. In this study, we therefore used a conceptualization of teacher learning through reflection as a situated and dynamic process in which available environmental information, learning activities,…
El tiempo en las clases de programación: ''Hacés y hacés y no te importa si tocó el timbre''
2021
A través de un estudio de caso en tres escuelas secundarias técnicas con orientación en programación se realizó una investigación cualitativa de corte etnográfica en la que se registraron los modos en que las y los estudiantes resuelven tareas de programación y organizan sus momentos de descanso. Recuperando las experiencias estudiantiles, se pudo observar cómo vivencian el tiempo cuando hay proyectos con desafíos cognitivos interesantes, en donde los cortes en su jornada escolar están fuertemente vinculados a la resolución de actividad escolar propuesta en vez de la estructura del horario escolar. Los recreos se ligan al sentido de la tarea, donde los descansos se vinculan a tres momentos …
Ethics and economics, friends or foes? An educational debate
2004
This paper reviews an ongoing debate about moral standards for vocational education in German speaking countries. At the centre of the controversy is the question of universalistic versus domain‐specific moral orientations, namely the question of whether business people ought to develop different moral points of view in different situations (such as ‘private’ versus ‘professional’). Of pivotal importance in this context is also a prominent ethical approach (by Karl Homann, a philosopher in the tradition of liberal economists) which serves as a foundation for those who advocate domain specificity and which is strongly criticized by their counterparts. This approach is also presented, since t…
