Teaching-Learning Processes in Vocational Education Foundations of Modern Training Programmes

Business and economics undergo far reaching changes called mega-trends: Globalization, fast long distance communication, innovations in technology as well as corresponding adaption of skill demands and worldwide competition are some of the most important and characteristic features of that development. How can we cope with this situation in vocational education? What are its implications for curricula and for methods of teaching and learning? Based on sophisticated research this volume offers ideas on how to deal with the new problems in the field of vocational education and training. Its main focus is on commercial education. But most of the concepts, strategies and approaches outlined in the 17 chapters can easily be transferred to other fields of secondary and post-secondary vocational education.Beck, Klaus is the author of 'Teaching-Learning Processes in Vocational Education Foundations of Modern Training Programmes', published 2002 under ISBN 9783631395486 and ISBN 3631395485.
