    17th International Conference for Hochschullernwerkstätten

    "Networking - going one step further" - Submission until 30 September 2023

    Organiser: University College of Teacher Education Styria (Pädagogische Hochschule Steiermark)

    Interconnection is based on the picture of the “network” – a central metaphor, which refers to the presence of the uncon­nec­ted in complex situa­tions, complex systems, and in phenomena. In this sense, inter­con­nec­tion can be under­s­tood as a reaction to the spe­cia­lizati­on and dif­fe­ren­tia­ti­on of sci­en­ti­fic knowledge; as a reaction to the frag­men­ta­ti­on of different areas of life and society; as a reaction to the loss of a com­pre­hen­si­ve view of the world; and as a reaction to limi­ta­ti­ons or cons­traints in orga­ni­sa­tio­nal terms. The con­fe­rence offers the oppor­tu­ni­ty to discuss facets of inter­con­nec­tion, its added value with regard to sus­tainable education as well as limits and chal­lenges.

    Learning Across Continents: Conversations in a divided world

    VETNET

    Topics:

    • How do we understand the role of VET in preparing young people for work when labour markets and workplaces are in flux nationally and internationally?
    • Is this changing the nature of VET and VET curricula? Is it raising new questions on work, labour markets and education? What is core to VET that is stable across different contexts?
    • Are systems looking more similar or more different from each other?
    • What are the main factors—such as workplace organisation, changing labour markets, changing enrolment in schools and universities, and the nature of economies that are influencing different aspects of VET provision—such as curriculum, governance, partnerships, enrollment patterns—in different countries?
    • How do we connect better as researchers, and use VET research to build connection?
