Digital education for vocational schools
Why should you not miss this lecture?
In Slovakia, the dual education system has been launched; it is based on the combination of theoretical education at schools and the practical education in an employer’s premises. Would you like to know, whether and to what extent the information technologies can help change the alarming situation in the secondary vocational education in Slovakia, where currently only about 6 percent out of 60 thousand graduates find jobs? Achievement of such a demanding objective requires the approach that would interconnect the knowledge obtained at school and the knowledge obtained from the employer, forming thus a single interface.
The Atos company has created the portal through which students from the selected study branches access the newest and most up-to-date information. They can access as much as 1,450 lectures, read 3,900 pages of texts, watch 6,060 minutes of videos, and listen to 24,200 minutes of educational texts. The portal is available via computers and tablets and the education thus acquires a brand new dimension. To launch such portal, it requires active participation of all stakeholders. In the presentation, Oskar Kadlec from the Atos company and Vojtech Andor from the Auto-Impex company describe how the information technologies help implement this strategic transition.
