This resource was developed by the MicroVET project. This project foresees among others to improve the quality and attractiveness of Vocational Education & Training (VET), and training in general, through the provision of flexible, inclusive and highly applicable training offers that correspond to contemporary needs of learners/trainees.
The course is catered to teachers. The activities for implementation involve both fellow teachers/colleagues and students.
The course ‘Inclusive science education and art‘ uses the Open-Ended scenario Framework. This is a tool to move from idea to action and dissemination. Using three SCE related topics, the Micro Credential course guides teachers and school leaders through the process of implementing, testing both knowledge as well as encouraging the implementation of the framework.
The main activity is a Microcredential course containing 6 modules and 7 assessments. The modules are:
- Open-ended scenarios
- Implementing open-ended scenarios
- Microplastics
- Carbon neutrality
- Cars and how to fuel them
- Creating & Using maps
Assesments are quizzes, testing the materials that are presented in the modules, but also implementation of the materials and developing lesson plans.
The modules provide a framework to work out ideas, turn them into plans and engage the local community. This framework is then applied to three major SCE related topics.
