Teacher Training. Strategies from the Second Transition Programme. Working Document. European Community Action Programme. Transition of Young People from Education to Adult and Working Life.
Banks, John
This report is one in a series on the work of the 30 pilot projects that form the European Community's second Programme on the Transition from Education to Adult and Working Life. The report analyzes the work of the pilot projects in the field of inservice teacher training. It lists the new demands on teachers, as the pilot projects identified them or reflected them, and the ways in which pilot projects provided the help that teachers needed. Some of the innovations in staff development included the following: (1) the introduction of more student-related approaches to learning; (2) the development of more student-related guidance and its closer integration into the learning process; (3) the promotion of the role of schools as partners with the world of work and as partners with their local community; and (4) action to promote greater equality of opportunity for young people from ethnic minority groups and for girls and young women. Pilot projects profiled in appendixes to the report include a work experience program for teachers in Zeeland, a field experience for guidance teachers in Greece, writing teams in Manchester, England, and school-linking in Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. A list of contacts for all pilot projects mentioned in the report is also appended. (KC)
