Conceptualizing STEM-didactics in a Dual VET System

Activity: Talk or presentation typesLecture or presentation

Description

The presentation on the experiences and reflections of teachers that teach courses in STEM subjects (i.e. Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) in Danish VET. The findings presented here are part of a comprehensive research project on STEM teaching in vocational training.

The results of our analysis to be presented offer nuanced insights into how VET teachers through STEM didactics strive to develop future skills of their students by focusing on more engaging learning methods and close cooperation with industry. Significant findings of the analysis point to the importance of teacher competencies to conceive and organize STEM-education, but also to the importance of teacher cooperation, management back-up and finally the constraints that teachers meet in the organizational and curricular context of a dual VET system.
