The target group- slow learner


Learners with learning disablilities

Disadvantaged learners

Second language learners

Learners with learning disablilitiesDisadvantaged

learners

Second language learners



What causes to be a slow learner?

The variety of causes

Cognitive disabilityNeurological structure

Disadvantages due to Strategic behavioral deficits

•Temporary emotional strain

•Lack of meta-cognition

•Traumata

•Economic conditions

•Cyclical conditions

•Adverse social living conditions

•Family-related

•Enviormental-related

•Poor memory performance

•Learning behavior

•Information-processing weakness



The existence of coherency

Group of slow learners

Lower level of school certifications

Youth with migration backgrounds

young people with health limitations

School-drop-outs

Young adults without a chance of a vocational education or job

Close connection between young unqualified adults and disadvantaged young people



Slow Learners and the community‘s future

Employment Social inclusion

Changing of qualification

s requirement

Changing the framework for slow learners to get the

qualification

e.g. Mechatronic/ Car-Mechatronic

1) Vocational schools as well as SME's often lack students’ valuable resources

2) The vocational-pedagogical competences to successfully teach qualified

disadvantaged people, is lacking in the training staff.



Action-based learning

Action-based learning/ embedded learning

Comprehensive perception of action

competences practising skills abilities

Develop learners‘

personality

Inclusion of their social situation



Action-based learning


Based on a comprehensive concept of action which includes creative and design aspects

Opens up learning opportunities that enable individual initiative, personal responsibility and independent action to solve tasks and problems

Places the learners with their individual learning requirements at the centre (and not the subject-matter, or the curriculum, etc.)



Action-based learningInvolves the learners actively in the planning and design of the learning process

Supports the identification of learners with the learning subject-matter, learners feel responsible for the success of the learning process

Including learners in the planning supports the linguistic and substantive handling of the learning subject.



Futur of trainings and further trainings


Action-based learning – embedded learning

INNOVET- Project

Turkey’s experience in the Leonardo da Vinci Transfer of Innovation Project

ETF Regional Meeting – Schools for inclusive Education in the Western Balkans and Turkey Sanliurfa, Turkey, 4.-6. October 2010

There are presenting: Jürgen Lau, VESBE e.V. & Çolpan Erdem, MEKSA VAKFI



The agenda

• Jürgen Lau, VESBE e.V., Germany• Overview of the Project • The relation to the ETF regional meeting• Action-based learning• Conclusions

• Çolpan Erdem, MEKSA VAKFI• Why participating in this project &• Turkey‘s experience in this project



MEKSA VAKFI

• 25 years experiences of Vocational Trainings

• 40 kind of different branches in 23 training centers

• 25% marginalised group of 5000 trainees each year

Çolpan Erdem, MEKSA VAKFI, Turkey



WHY INNOVET PROJECT IS SO IMPORTANT FOR MEKSA ?

• The mechatronics field is expanding very fastly

• Mechatronics qualified personals are needed




Participation of MEKSA

• Analysed process of Mechatronics in Turkey

• Hold meetings with 23 automotive champers, 4 universities, 8 high schools for making analysis

• Helped partners to develop concepts, curricula, materials, media, learning arrangements

• Translated concepts and materials into turkish




• Hold meetings with Trainers and informed them about slow learners and embedded learnings.

• Adaptation of modules to Turkey (with translators and trainers)

• Testing mechatronics modules in 4 training center with trainees.

• Will write a report of testing materials





Arranged a 5-Days workshop „Train the Trainers“

together with VESBE e.V. &In co-operation of the Marmara University (Prof. Dr. N. Akkus), Istanbul

Pedagogical and Technical issues



www.innovet-mechatronics.eu Contributions of Innovet Project

to Meksa
