| Summary: | This article examines a didactic and curricular model that was developed to
support the implementation of a competence-based approach, today prevailing
in the European (initial) vocational education and training (VET). It starts
by presenting contemporary developments in the Slovenian VET, and then
continues with a study of some of the underlying pedagogical concepts
influencing the contemporary educational practice. The concept of competence,
as it relates to the Slovenian VET, is discussed, and the new didactic model
is presented in terms of its conceptualisation, realisation and evaluation.
The model is built around the concepts of the competence- based didactic
unit, and has been produced to help teachers support students in developing
the ability to integrate knowledge, skills and attitudes, so that they are
able to solve complex and unpredictable professional tasks and challenges.
The article concludes with a discussion on the methodological limitations of
the evaluation, and its transferability to other contexts. |
