Gäste aus Belgien und Bulgarien, Reisen nach Portugal und Italien … die Lehrkräfte der Richard-Hartmann-Schule Chemnitz, einem beruflichen Schulzentrum für Technik, nutzten die Möglichkeiten, die ihnen das ENNE-Netzwerk bietet, mit großem Enthusiasmus.

In Chemnitz wurden den belgischen und bulgarischen Kolleg:innen nicht nur Einblicke in das Unterrichtsgeschehen des Berufsschulzentrums gewährt, sondern auch Unternehmen und Praxispartner der Region sowie natürlich Museen und kulturelle Sehenswürdigkeiten besucht. Hier wie auch bei den Besuchen der Lehrkräfte in Italien und Portugal war es zuallererst der persönliche Austausch und die gegenseitige Inspiration, die diese Erfahrungen für alle Beteiligten und darüber hinaus für ihre Institutionen so wertvoll gemacht haben. Das Credo: Wir leben Europa.

Could an experience leave you so much even if lived in such a short time?

13 students in 10 days had an intense experience. The one that can be defined not simply as work or a personal one, but as a life experience. Being introduced, even if delicately, into a system so distant from their own, implies a significant effort. Adapting rapidly to requests, outside your own field of competence, makes you grow both from the personal and work level. And maybe this is the reason why teenagers love those kind of projects.

What is the project in which these young people from Bulgaria, Portugal, and Italy took part in?

It is called Car mechanics in Belgium, more specifically the students took part in the experience in Mechelen, a Belgian city located in the province of Antwerp. All this was possible thanks to the opportunity provided by the Technical schools Mechelen, a technical school known for its reputation in technical training in building, biotechnics, car mechanics, multimedia. Not only but also thanks to Connectief, an organization that supports the implementation of mobility. VDAB as well, a public employment service in Flanders. Which made available the necessary tools, for a 3-day project, called: Greenpower.

This collaboration resulted in a 10-day project focused on increasing knowledge of electric and hybrid vehicles. Characterized by activities, which aimed to learning how to power up a vehicle in AR (augmented reality), working on an electric vehicle supervised by a teacher and electrode mobile experience room. All lightened by activities that led the student to fall in love with the city they were in, to enjoy the time spent in the halls of the auto world and army museum. It was an experience marked by an appreciation of practicality. The fact that the students had the opportunity to verify their knowledge, touching with their hands and seeing this new world with their eyes, made the experience even more effective.

The icing on the cake was participation in the green power project. It lighted up the minds of these young people, procuring a special interest. Being able to drive an electric kart, which they had built themselves, placed the project on a higher level.

In conclusion, such a project cannot be belittled simply by calling it a school experience, because it is anything but. The collaboration created between the students, the relationships established, and the palpable understanding that there was between those guys, who did not even know each other up to 10 days before, can not only affect the working environmentbut the personal one as well.

What better way to describe an experience than with words used by the participants themselves!

Alessandro Safonte, teacher at High School “Rocco Chinnici” in Italy, hosted by Escola Secundária de Felgueiras in Portugal.

Alessandro’s experience:
“Amazing welcome! My colleague Clarisse Maria Carneiro Bravo de Oliveira Pires Lemos welcomed me like a brother, I felt pampered by everyone. The activities carried out were varied, I had the opportunity to give lectures on topics specific to the hotel sector, from simple notions of service styles in the restaurant room, highlighting the differences between the two countries, to the complex subject of Italian denominations of origin, to the exchange of good practices and comparison of the forms used for internships and use of platforms.

On 12 May, I was invited as a speaker in a debate on school and European citizenship, I was a little embarrassed at first, I do not have a good command of the English language apart from a minimal vocabulary. However, I think it went very well, in the days that followed I was appreciated for the food for thought that I shared with the bystanders, I was perhaps a bit provocative but it is part of my character.

The students were very interested and followed me with passion, they even enjoyed taking my picture. With them, mutual sympathy suddenly sprang up, I must admit that at the moment of saying goodbye I got a little sad. My colleague gave me the opportunity to visit the companies with which they collaborate by hosting their students on internships, I hope that this will start a collaboration in the coming years, I would love to take my students for an experience in Portugal.

The visits to the main tourist attractions were also very interesting, and not only that, my colleague Sandra Machado gave me a tour of an important home textiles company, which was a wonderful visit”.

Alessandro Safonte, teacher at the high school “Rocco Chinnici” (Italy) hosted Prof. Regine Vandecandelaere, lecturer c/o the LTI Oedelem (school for science, landscaping, gardening) in Oedelem (Beernem) for her job-shadowing activity from 24 March to 30 March.

Regine’s experience:

“A very pleasant experience, certainly being on my own I was able to devote myself to her for the whole week, the day started at 7:30 a.m., when I went to pick her up in Catania, to go to our Institute, and start different activities. She took part in my technical-practical lessons in the workshops of the dining room and kitchen and participated in French and English lessons.

The relationship with other colleagues was very good, at the beginning she didn’t understand the dynamism of our institute and this made her a bit uncomfortable, in fact, then she liked the way we teachers interact with our students, being a professional institute the approach with them is very empathetic.

During the week we didn’t limit ourselves to classroom activities but I took the opportunity to have her meet with the students who were doing internships at hotels in Taormina, the focus of the experience was on the management of our students’ internships, we talked a lot about how to organise them and the critical issues that can arise.

We also compared the documentation we use in the management of internships, and had the opportunity to exchange views with the students and company tutors. There were also visits to the area such as Noto. Vendicari Nature Reserve, Syracuse, Catania, Taormina; the food and wine experiences were also interesting, which I say…. I hope to give the same opportunities to many more teachers next year”.

KA2 SUS&DIV – Sustainability and diversity improvement in cooking and catering

Keine Kommentare zu KA2 SUS&DIV – Sustainability and diversity improvement in cooking and catering

The KA2 SUS&DIV project wants to:

create an inclusive environment in cooking and catering vocational adult training: Diversity is gaining in Europe. The European Commission focuses on the importance of diversity and inclusion in our workplaces and in the society throughout the whole European Union through actions such as Diversity Month. If we want employers who are able to adequately and ethically deal with diversity issues, we have to create an inclusive environment in our education system. In our context we see diversity in an intersectional approach. Intersectionality means that somebody’s social identity is not perceived in terms of just one aspect of it (such as gender, social class, religion, ethnicity, sexuality) but that these aspects together shape somebody’s perceived and experienced social identity. All these different aspects coexist, mutually reinforce each other and decide the unique social location that an individual occupies. The broader social environment also influences the way a person experiences his or her specific social location in society. It is not possible to provide diversity-sensitive teaching and learning without addressing this complex relation between social identities and the organizational and societal context. (Radstake, 2021)
implement sustainability in cooking and catering vocational adult training: The Farm to Fork Strategy is at the heart of the Green Deal. It addresses comprehensively the challenges of sustainable food systems and recognizes the inextricable links between healthy people, healthy societies and a healthy planet. The strategy is also central to the Commission’s agenda to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). All citizens and operators across value chains, in the EU and elsewhere, should benefit from a just transition, especially in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic downturn. A shift to a sustainable food system can bring environmental, health and social benefits, offer economic gains and ensure that the recovery from the crisis puts us onto a sustainable path. If we want the Farm to Fork strategy to be successful, the catering and cooking education has to be involved, so the strategy will be adapted in future catering businesses.

KA2 Dementia

Taking into account the proposal for a Council Recommendation on Vocational Education and Training for Sustainable Competitiveness, Social Equity and Resilience and the updated European Skills Agenda, the Osnabrück Declaration focuses on four key areas for the years 2021 to 2025:

Resilience and excellence through quality, inclusive and flexible VET
Creating a new culture for lifelong learning – relevance of continuing education and digitalisation
Sustainability – a green link to VET
European education and training area and international vocational education and training

With this project we contribute to these objectives to a greater or lesser extent. Our two focuses within our project are mainly on 1 and 2. Through this project we upscale the digital skills of teachers and trainers in both the formal and non-formal sector so that they are able to develop qualitative interactive online teaching modules that contribute to a culture of lifelong learning. The developed modules focus on the theme of dementia in society. By doing so, we improve the quality of the existing care training programmes in the formal VET and the training programmes in the nonformal sector and adapt them to the increasing demand from society for quality education on this theme. This is necessary in order to detect the condition in people at an early stage and to provide them with high-quality care and support.

On its website, the WHO identifies a lack of awareness and knowledge about dementia, which is widespread in many countries. The partners within this project consortium fully endorse this observation.

The prevalence of dementia is escalating worldwide and knowledge deficits remain a barrier to community inclusiveness and quality care. The need for quality, comprehensive education has been identified as a key priority for global action plans on dementia. In the fight against Alzheimer’s disease, early recognition of this condition is extremely important. The online material we are developing is focused on the one hand on recognising the disorder and experiencing it, and on the other hand on the care that people with dementia need in their day-to-day lives.

At the end of this project, 24 expert teachers/trainers from the formal and non-formal sector will have upgraded their digital skills. Indirectly, there will be more people involved, because the 24 who are directly involved will spread the word within their own organisation.

3 modules will be developed.

A first module will deal with the dementia condition: issues such as What is dementia?, What are the symptoms? Different forms of dementia, Stages of dementia, Observing and understanding changing behaviour, Improving day-to-day functioning of people with dementia, Environmental impact on people with dementia, Dealing with changing behaviour, approaches and communication in dementia will be addressed.

A second module will deal with the necessary care, support and guidance for people with dementia in their home environment and in a care facility.

A final module will be about empowerment; with this module we want to achieve that people with dementia are seen and addressed to their full potential, within the context of this project by their family caregivers and their caregivers but by extension not only in care but also in society. The development of this material will ensure that care training in the formal VET sector and training in the informal sector can respond to the increasing demand for people with prior knowledge of dementia.

Keine Kommentare zu Lehren und lernen mit vr in der berufsbildung

Wie lässt sich Virtual Reality in der beruflichen Bildung nutzen? Das Erasmus+ Projekt TeachINVR wird eine Kombination aus Methodik, Leitfaden und “To-do”-Listen entwickeln, die alle notwendigen Informationen über den Einsatz von VR für das Lehren und Lernen als (Berufsschul-)Lehrer:in oder Ausbilder:in enthält.

ENNE Partner Wisamar ist einer der Projektpartner.

Die Motivation

Die Covid-19-Pandemie hat das Bildungswesen aufgrund der mangelnden digitalen Kompetenzen der Lehrkräfte und Ausbilder:innen stark beeinträchtigt. In dieser Krise liegt jedoch auch eine Chance für das Voranbringen der Digitalisierung und neuer Kenntnisse sowie den Aufbau von Kapazitäten für alle Akteure der Berufsbildung, einschließlich Lernende, Anbieter, Lehrkräfte und politische Entscheidungsträger:innen.

Das Problem

Digitale Unterrichtsmethoden und der Einsatz von Tausenden von verfügbaren Tools stellen für Berufsbildner:innen, Lehrer:innen und Ausbilder:innen nach wie vor ein Hindernis dar.

Die Wissenslücken in den Reihen des Beurfsbildungspersonals sind beträchtlich, und diese Lücke wirkt sich auf die gesamte Lerngemeinschaft aus.

Die Lösung

Eine Plattform, auf der Lehrkräfte in der beruflichen Bildung wirksame Instrumente finden und Wissen und bewährte Verfahren mit Gleichgesinnten austauschen können.

Die Ziele von TeachINVR

Darauf zielt das Projekt ab:

Modernisierung und Innovation der beruflichen Bildung
Erwerb von neuen digitalen Kompetenzen
Einsatz von Virtual Reality in der Berufsbildung
Schulung der Lehrkräfte in der beruflichen Bildung im Umgang mit VR
Zugang zu Tools und Methoden

Die Ergebnisse von TeachINVR

Innovative Lehr/Lernmethodik für VR in der Berufsbildung. Ein Einführungsmaterial in Form einer PDF-Datei, die das notwendige Wissen über die Technologie selbst und die Methodik für die Nutzung durch Lehrkräfte enthält.
Handbuch für die Gestaltung, Umsetzung und Bewertung von VR im Unterricht. Das Handbuch ist die Anwendung der Methodik in einem tatsächlichen Schulungshandbuch, das sich sowohl an Ausbilder:innen als auch an Lehrer:innen richtet.
VR-Erfahrung für Berufsbildner:innen. Die Nutzenden können in einem speziell entwickelten VR-Szenario erleben und ausprobieren, wie die Anwendung im Unterricht funktionieren könnte. Der Inhalt des VR-Kurses wird eine praktische Anwendung der Methodik bzw. des Handbuchs sein.
Ein Leitfaden für Berufsbildner:innen, den sie verwenden können, falls sie keine Zeit haben, die Materialien (Methodik und Handbuch) durchzuarbeiten. Es handelt sich um eine Art Checkliste oder eine To-do-Liste für Pädagogen. Der Leitfaden verweist auf die vorangegangenen Materialien und verweist auf die Kapitel, in denen Pädagogen detailliertere Informationen finden können.

Keine Kommentare zu International training course on Quality Assurance System (QAS) in Sofia, Bulgaria

The ENNE project team is happy to announce that the International training course on Quality Assurance System (QAS) was held in Sofia, Bulgaria!

The QAS course was organized by the Bulgarian partner – European Center for Quality Ltd. with the support of all project partners. The training was with total duration of 5 days from 30.05 to 03.06.2022 and was attended by a total of 17 participants from 13 educational institutions from 5 EU countries (Italy, Germany, Bulgaria, Portugal and Belgium).

During each of the five days, participants were engaged in interactive activities aimed at:

enriching their knowledge on international cooperation in VET; quality in VET mobilities, project preparation and implementation, etc.
promoting networking, team work and exchange of good practices between participants;
establishing a good foundation for further international cooperation between participants and their organisations;

The first day of the training was aimed at creating prerequisites for group forming and was devoted to introduction of all participants and their organisations through various ice-breaking sessions and activities.

On the second day participants’ attention was focused on defining quality from A to Z – both in general and in mobility projects. Later participants were split into 3 teams and were asked to describe what are the roles and responsibilities of hosting and sending organisations as well as participants in mobilities and to present the results. Day 2 ended with presentation of the Quality Assurance System (QAS) and a group reflection session devoted to the applicability of QAS.

On day 3, participants were engaged in a World café workshop devoted to the important aspects of VET mobilities. In this session also experts from the ENNE partner organisations took part. Each partner was covering an important topic within their expertise such as “Accreditation and project preparation”, “Interaction with companies and labour market”, etc. and participants were switching tables based on their interests and most pressing questions.

The afternoon session was devoted on the importance of human relations in VET mobilities during which participants were engaged in a discussion about the most important qualities of mentors in VET mobilities.

Day 4 of the training was focused on introduction to Erasmus Quality Standards
for mobility projects in VET – 2021-2027 and in the afternoon, participants were engaged in designing their own quality framework by defining categories for quality assessment, indicators, source of verification. Afterwards each team presented their framework and the logic behind it.

The last day of the QAS international training included a study visit to the National High School in Finance and Business (NHSFB) and an afternoon wrap up session.

The QAS training created great prerequisites for boosting participants’ knowledge and capacity to prepare and implement VET mobility projects as well as for networking and exchange of good practices and know-how between participating educational organisations from the partner countries. Therefore, the QAS training ended with many ideas for further international cooperation between participants and the organisations they were representing as well as many creative plans for common project initiatives
