Increasing WBL in School-Based VET Systems
It is a great pleasure to invite interested researchers to apply for a workshop on increasing work-based learning in school-based VET systems in Central and Eastern Europe. Junior researchers (late PhDs, Postdocs) are particularly welcome to apply! Successful applicants will present their papers at the 5th Crossing Boundaries taking place in Kaunas, Lithuania, in May 2023 and participate in workshop activities such as keynote speeches and field visits. Junior researchers’ accommodation and travelling expenses linked to the conference will be covered up to 700 EUR.
It will be an excellent opportunity for participants to share their newest scientific work in the field of governance of VET in Central and Eastern Europe. The call is directed at research contributions that focus on how the design of educational policies and systems, institutional settings, and actors and stakeholders can contribute to accommodating the various interests and logics that arise when introducing cooperation-intensive work-based learning in predominantly school-based VET systems. Contributions can be made within various disciplines (Education science, Political science, Economics, Sociology, History, etc.).
All relevant information regarding the topic of interest, submission guidelines, and important dates can be found on the conference website. The deadline to submit abstracts is the 31 August 2022. They need to be sent to crossing.boundaries@vetnetsite.org.
In addition, we are supporting a junior researcher with a research grant interested in researching and collaborating in this particular field. The deadline for applications is also the 31 August 2022.

EPALE und Erasmus+ Konferenz 2024
Die Erwachsenenbildung spielt eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Förderung von Partizipation in unserer Gesellschaft. Durch den Erwerb von Wissen, Fertigkeiten und Kompetenzen können Erwachsene befähigt werden, aktiv an politischen, sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Prozessen teilzunehmen. Förderung von Partizipation durch Erwachsenenbildung zielt darauf ab, Menschen zu ermutigen, ihre Meinungen und Interessen einzubringen, sich zu engagieren und Verantwortung zu übernehmen. Dies trägt nicht nur zur Stärkung der Demokratie bei, sondern auch zur persönlichen Entwicklung und zur Verbesserung der Lebensqualität. Welche Ansätze bietet die Politische Erwachsenenbildung? Zwei interaktive Vorträge bieten Einblick in das System der Politischen Erwachsenenbildung Österreichs und der Schweiz sowie Vernetzungsaktivitäten in der DACH-Region (Deutschland, Österreich und Schweiz).
Gemeinsam möchten wir auch herausfinden wie EPALE und Erasmus+ die Partizipation durch Erwachsenenbildung unterstützen und fördern kann. Lernen Sie auf der Konferenz innovative Methoden und Tools zur Förderung der gesellschaftlichen Partizipation kennen, die teilweise im Rahmen von Erasmus+ entwickelt wurden und informieren Sie sich im Rahmen des Erasmus+ Corners, wie Erwachsenenbildner/innen und erwachsene Lernende durch Mobilität im Rahmen von Erasmus+ in Europa neue Fertigkeiten und Kenntnisse erwerben können.
Der OeAD lädt die Erwachsenenbildungs-Community herzlich zu einem fachlichen und interaktiven Austausch ein.

The event, taking place in Brussels and available to watch online, will focus on how apprenticeships can help to alleviate labour shortages in various sectors within the EU, as highlighted by the 2023 Employment and Social Developments in Europe (ESDE) Report.
The hybrid event will look closely at effective policy measures and collaborative strategies that can be implemented through apprenticeship programmes. By providing young learners with the skills employers need and older workers with opportunities to re-skill and up-skill, these solutions can play a key role in overcoming labour shortages.
Join the event to learn about:
-
advocating for quality apprenticeships;
-
facilitating collaboration and the exchange of best practices;
-
the contributions EAfA stakeholders have made to quality apprenticeships.

Innovate, Adapt, Preserve: Navigating Change in Higher Education
6th International VET Conference Crossing Boundaries
Human Learning and Machine Learning— Challenges and Opportunities for AI in Education
The arrival of generative AI has precipitated a panic among some educators while prompting qualified enthusiasm from others. Ask a GPTs (Generative Pre-Trained Transformer) to take a high-stakes select response test, and it will generally pass or even excel. Prompt it to write a five-paragraph essay on any topic, and it will produce a well-written if dull and predictable response, at least as good or better than a student’s response. Here comes a cheating bonanza: unless strictly proctored, there’s no reliable way to tell whether a student response has been generated by AI, especially with a few extra tricks in written text such as adding some typos or awkward expressions. What to do? How to put generative AI to good use?
In addition to the broad range of regular themes addressing educational and social change at The Learner Conference, this year we will have a special theme exploring the implications and applications artificial intelligence in education generally, and GPTs in particular. Presentations addressing this special theme will examine the differences between machine and human learning and the ways in which machines can complement human learning. Some of the questions we will address are: What are supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement machine learning? Will mechanical intelligence ever be able to replicate or exceed human intelligence? What are the practical applications of learning analytics and artificial intelligence in learning management systems and other educational tools? What are the implications for diversity, equity and inclusion?

EPALE und Erasmus+ Konferenz 2024
Die Erwachsenenbildung spielt eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Förderung von Partizipation in unserer Gesellschaft. Durch den Erwerb von Wissen, Fertigkeiten und Kompetenzen können Erwachsene befähigt werden, aktiv an politischen, sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Prozessen teilzunehmen. Förderung von Partizipation durch Erwachsenenbildung zielt darauf ab, Menschen zu ermutigen, ihre Meinungen und Interessen einzubringen, sich zu engagieren und Verantwortung zu übernehmen. Dies trägt nicht nur zur Stärkung der Demokratie bei, sondern auch zur persönlichen Entwicklung und zur Verbesserung der Lebensqualität. Welche Ansätze bietet die Politische Erwachsenenbildung? Zwei interaktive Vorträge bieten Einblick in das System der Politischen Erwachsenenbildung Österreichs und der Schweiz sowie Vernetzungsaktivitäten in der DACH-Region (Deutschland, Österreich und Schweiz).
Gemeinsam möchten wir auch herausfinden wie EPALE und Erasmus+ die Partizipation durch Erwachsenenbildung unterstützen und fördern kann. Lernen Sie auf der Konferenz innovative Methoden und Tools zur Förderung der gesellschaftlichen Partizipation kennen, die teilweise im Rahmen von Erasmus+ entwickelt wurden und informieren Sie sich im Rahmen des Erasmus+ Corners, wie Erwachsenenbildner/innen und erwachsene Lernende durch Mobilität im Rahmen von Erasmus+ in Europa neue Fertigkeiten und Kenntnisse erwerben können.

The event, taking place in Brussels and available to watch online, will focus on how apprenticeships can help to alleviate labour shortages in various sectors within the EU, as highlighted by the 2023 Employment and Social Developments in Europe (ESDE) Report.
The hybrid event will look closely at effective policy measures and collaborative strategies that can be implemented through apprenticeship programmes. By providing young learners with the skills employers need and older workers with opportunities to re-skill and up-skill, these solutions can play a key role in overcoming labour shortages.
Join the event to learn about:
-
advocating for quality apprenticeships;
-
facilitating collaboration and the exchange of best practices;

Human Learning and Machine Learning— Challenges and Opportunities for AI in Education
The arrival of generative AI has precipitated a panic among some educators while prompting qualified enthusiasm from others. Ask a GPTs (Generative Pre-Trained Transformer) to take a high-stakes select response test, and it will generally pass or even excel. Prompt it to write a five-paragraph essay on any topic, and it will produce a well-written if dull and predictable response, at least as good or better than a student’s response. Here comes a cheating bonanza: unless strictly proctored, there’s no reliable way to tell whether a student response has been generated by AI, especially with a few extra tricks in written text such as adding some typos or awkward expressions. What to do? How to put generative AI to good use?
In addition to the broad range of regular themes addressing educational and social change at The Learner Conference, this year we will have a special theme exploring the implications and applications artificial intelligence in education generally, and GPTs in particular. Presentations addressing this special theme will examine the differences between machine and human learning and the ways in which machines can complement human learning. Some of the questions we will address are: What are supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement machine learning? Will mechanical intelligence ever be able to replicate or exceed human intelligence? What are the practical applications of learning analytics and artificial intelligence in learning management systems and other educational tools? What are the implications for diversity, equity and inclusion?
