Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "UNESCO has recently published the third volume of its Education on the Move series, a series dedicated to the analysis of key trends in education with the hope of inspiring dialogue among policy makers, educators and other key stakeholders on the challenges of education for tomorrow. The latest publication, entitled Unleashing the Potential: Transforming Technical and Vocational Education and Training is focused entirely on issues related to technical and vocational education and training (TVET). It takes stock of the steadily increasing demands and expectations on TVET systems around the globe and presents recent policy trends in the field of TVET. In their analysis, the authors provide insights into what it takes to unleash the potential of TVET systems around the world. They propose an integrated analytical approach that takes into consideration such factors as economic growth, social equity and issues related to sustainability so that TVET can contribute more effectively to contemporary policy issues such as youth unemployment, gender disparities and climate change. Overall, the book calls for a transformation of TVET systems to enable them to respond to the demands of their contexts. This transformation should enable TVET systems to acquire agility to stay current and responsive to the rapidly changing demands of the twenty-first century."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book Examining Career Development in Jamaica and Australia written by Denise N. Fyffe and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many other nations, Australia experienced social and economic transformation. They had to implement career development measures that would sustain the progress needed because their way of life was being threatened by the international crisis happening around them. To do this Australia utilized mediums that would successfully create new programs, services, schemes, and benefits. At present in Jamaica, many of the graduates of secondary institutions enter the job market ill equipped to access the opportunities available to them. For some, there is inadequate basic academic preparation; for most, there is inadequate career education. The world of work has grown very complex and numerous career options are open to students. Educational decisions made rather early in the school life of students, will have a decisive influence on their access to careers of choice later on. It is important that career awareness, career exploration and career preparation activities be incorporated into their early education.

This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Pedagogy - The Teacher, Educational Leadership, grade: Pass, course: Education, language: English, abstract: The aim of this dissertation was to investigate the extent of entrepreneurship skills development through TVET programs in Botswana at FCTVE as a technical college. To attain this work, inductive method was used. Representative sample of graduates for the class of 2008-2015 were used as subjects of the research. Open ended interviews were used as a method of data collection. Looking at the investigation of the study, the training of entrepreneurship could immensely contribute in allowing graduates to have business skills and competencies that could be more important in identifying business opportunities and operate their own businesses. Furthermore, the training of entrepreneurship has not yet been considered by the government since it can bring positive results on graduates on self-employment as a career development. By utilizing qualitative approach the research adopted open ended interviews as a method of collecting data. Data saturation was arrived at 22 graduates from 2008-2015 for Francistown Technical college graduates who were purposively sampled. The research found that the TVET graduates do not have passion about entrepreneurship since they are not interested in being employers but rather they want to be employees. Participants stated challenges for entrepreneurship and these included lack of funds as well as institutions and stakeholders failing to work together in order to produce quality entrepreneurs. Strategies that were suggested during the study include: review of the curriculum content and training instructors so that TVET could have enough number of personnel teaching entrepreneurship. The study also found that TVET graduates are not able to start their own businesses due to lack of capital. It was recommended that the Botswana Government should be seen supporting graduates by developing

Download or read book Teacher Educators Perception of Character Education in Jamaica written by Monica Dempster and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This was a multi-case qualitative study, designed to investigate teacher educators' perception of character education in Jamaica and how they enact character education in their classrooms. The study provided a localized version to the vast amount of research that has been conducted on character education in developed countries. Against the background of the significant role of teacher education, the study provided important insights regarding how teacher educators perceived, and enacted character education. Given the abstract nature of character education, a seven-point Likert scale questionnaire and two short cases were used to guide the interviews with the fifteen teacher educators' who were purposively selected to take part in the study. Artifacts provided by the teacher educators, provided additional data for study. The responses on the questionnaire ranged from strongly agree through to strongly disagree. The data were analysed using the thematic approach. The data generated from the instruments were collated and attributed to the themes and major research questions to which they were aligned. The findings revealed that teacher educators' perception of character education was closely aligned to the authoritative perception. The commonly shared view among participants was that character education is a means of instilling in children and young people the traditional values of the society and teaching them good manners. It was found that the older participants hold that character education is the process of teaching young people to be respectful, caring and to have good manners, especially to their elders. The younger participants hold that character education should focus on teaching young people the values and attitudes that will help them to live successfully in community, where there is mutual respect between all members of that community. They explained that the goal of character education should therefore be to equip young people with the ability to make right decisions and excel at what they do, rather than become obedient, subservient members of the society. All fifteen respondents strongly agreed with the authoritative perception, that people do not naturally develop good character and are therefore in need of correction. Twelve of the fifteen participants also revealed that their belief that human beings do not naturally develop good character is further supported by the experiences they have gained observing and relating to other human beings. The findings also revealed that except for Guidance Counselors, teacher educators did not formally teach character education. The teacher educators described their character education activities as informal and reactive. Informal because they did not usually go to their classes with a plan to teach character education, and reactive because many of their explicit character education actions were in response to the undesirable or inappropriate behaviours of their students. Their character education actions included correcting undesirable behaviours and modeling appropriate behaviours. Most of the teacher educators supported the direct didactic approach as the more effective approach to the teaching of character education and believed that pre service teachers are inadequately prepared for the task of character education.
