The VET school has tested out and had success with application of flipped learning methodologies in their work-based training activities. This is an educational approach that reverses the traditional teaching model by delivering instructional content outside of the classroom (typically by use of online video) and focusing on active, collaborative work-based learning activities during work-based class time in the work-shop.
Flipped learning helps securing active engagement during class activities where the time in the workshop is dedicated to discussions, problem-solving, and hands-on activities, allowing students to engage more deeply with the material. It helps shifting the focus from passive listening to active participation, enhancing understanding and retention.
The personalization of the learning pace let students review demonstration content, such as videos demonstrating the various production steps, at their own pace, pausing or replaying as needed. Such flexibility
better supports students diverse learning styles and helps students better prepare for work-based training activities in the workshop.
This methodology let the VET school better focus the limited time available for work-based training on expensive special machines. This includes clarifying complex concepts, foster collaborative learning and secure the important HES issues.
