Rediscovery and Restoring Forgotten Principles: Returning to the Past to Transform and Shape VET for the Future. Back to the Basics in VET

The article explores the historical foundations and contemporary practices of Vocational Education and Training (VET), uncovering a cyclical relationship between past and present methodologies. It begins by analysing the traditional apprenticeship systems of medieval Europe and their counterparts in Asian contexts, demonstrating how these early models laid the groundwork for modern vocational education. The article then traces the historical origin of VET in response to shifting economic conditions and technological advancements, identifying key contemporary practices—such as competency-based education, work-based learning, and experiential learning—as rebranded versions of historical approaches. The analysis emphasizes that many of these so-called “innovations” are not entirely new but are instead adaptations of time-tested methods that have been revitalized to address current educational demands. This historical perspective underscores the importance of integrating traditional practices to enhance the effectiveness and relevance of modern VET systems. The discussion stresses the importance of learning from historical experiences to inform future developments in vocational education, suggesting that a deep understanding of VET’s historical context can provide valuable insights for educators and policymakers alike. The article also addresses the potential pitfalls of renaming and rebranding educational approaches, which can lead to misleading perceptions and adverse effects, hindering educators and policymakers from recognizing foundational principles that remain pertinent today. Additionally, the uncritical dismissal and rejection of past educational principles signifies a denial of the cultural and educational traditions that informed their development and shaped them. Acknowledging and recognizing these historical influences can enrich contemporary educational frameworks and promote a more nuanced understanding of the current educational landscape.

AUDIOVISUAL METHOD IN LEARNING FOREIGN LANGUAGES

The article reveals the essence of the audiovisual method of teaching foreign languages. The main methods of learning foreign languages are characterized (grammatical translation, audio-lingual, communicative, immersive, direct, suggestive, neurolinguistic methods). The history of the emergence of the audiovisual method is traced and the contribution of various scientists to its development is analyzed (P. Rivan, R. Lado, R. Riсher). It is noted that the audiovisual method of learning foreign languages is a teaching method based on a combination of auditory (audio) and visual (video) stimuli, i.e. the defining feature of the method is the simultaneous use of sound and image. The importance of the method in the context of further development of multimedia resources is emphasized. The main characteristics of the method are presented: combination of images and sounds, contextual learning, emphasis on listening comprehension and pronunciation, lack of translation, repeated practice. Determined components of the method: listening, watching videos, repetition, perception of context. Advantages and disadvantages of the method are outlined. The advantages of the audiovisual method include: improving perception and memorization, immersive learning, getting closer to the natural language environment, active use of the context, and gradual mastery of the language. The limitations of the audiovisual method are: less emphasis on writing, the need for technical resources, which can make it difficult to use the method in schools or at home. Prospects for further research of the audiovisual method and its potential are indicated, especially in the context of technology development and individualization of education. It was concluded that the audiovisual method is a powerful tool for the initial stage of language learning, but it needs to be supplemented with other methods for comprehensive language acquisition.

Data-driven prediction of early language delay at Youth Health Care Services in the Netherlands

Abstract Introduction Language development in early childhood significantly impacts future academic success, social interaction, and emotional well-being. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a prediction model using data on developmental milestones and parents’ socio-economic background known at age 2, and translate the results into an interactive digital dashboard and pilot it with Youth Health Care (YHC) professionals and parents. Methods A mixed-method study on retrospective cohort of children attending YHC at age 2, followed up until age 4. Data on language development, gender, parental education, and home language environment were obtained from YHC digital dossiers and linked to parental socio-economic status characteristics, and perinatal outcomes and healthcare costs using a secure remote access environment of Statistics Netherlands. Random forest and logistic regression models were computed with language development at age 4 as an outcome, initially using all available data at age 2 as predictors and then with a restricted model using variables readily available in YHC settings. Models performance was assessed using sensitivity, specificity, and AUC value. Results were visualized through an interactive dashboard and pilot-tested in simulated consultations. Results Among 9,148 children, 13.2% had language development delay at age 4. The full model had an AUC of 0.78, while the restricted model (gender, parental education, language environment, and language development), achieved an AUC of 0.77. YHC professionals and parents recognized the value of individualized, data-driven risk assessment for potential language delay to stimulate the discussion of preventive interventions. Conclusions A good quality prediction model for language development at age 4 can be derived from just a few background characteristics of the child and parents at age 2. The digital dashboard presents a practical approach of integrating prediction model results into daily YHC practice. Key messages • Language development at age of 4 can be predicted as early as age of 2 using just a few background characteristics of child and parents, which presents a window of opportunity for prevention. • The digital dashboard presents a practical approach of integrating prediction model results into preventive care practice.

EXPLORING KAZAKH EFL TEACHERS’ PROFESSIONAL IDENTITY: A QUANTITATIVE STUDY

This study's extensive quantitative research design to investigate the professional identities of in-service EFL teachers in Kazakhstan and Turkistan makes it stand out. A comprehensive survey, unparalleled in scope and exhaustiveness, was distributed to 470 English instructors in 45 state schools, offering an extensive synopsis of how these educators see their professional identities. The survey findings provide insights into several professional identity factors, including the propensity to teach, act as role models, and establish productive learning settings. The results show that participants' professional identities were generally average, with major exceptions for knowledge-sharing and role modeling. Simultaneously, less emphasis was placed on recognizing students' original language culture and establishing a favorable classroom atmosphere. The study also looks at how different professional identities are within qualification categories, and it finds statistically significant variances that highlight how teachers' self-perception and professional growth are influenced by their educational background. These findings have implications for teacher education and professional development initiatives and a deeper knowledge of the elements influencing EFL instructors' professional identities in Kazakhstan.

Analyzing the school curriculum from a post-critical and multi-referential perspective is essential to understand the influence of movements that defend a neutral and impartial curriculum. These moves have significantly shaped official decisions about the curriculum. The aim of this article is to explore how disputes over curriculum definitions go beyond epistemological concerns, encompassing political aspects and power relations, and to assess the implications for Youth and Adult Education (EJA) and teacher training. It is a bibliographic and documentary research. The results suggest that curriculum development is influenced by external power dynamics and political decisions. It is necessary to integrate the continuous training of teachers to better meet the diverse needs of EJA students. Understanding the curriculum as a dynamic and contested space is crucial for effective educational practices. To create an effective and inclusive pedagogical model, it is essential to consider both the theoretical and practical aspects of curriculum development. Reflecting on and learning about continuing professional development for educators from a curriculum that responds to students' experiences and needs is vital to fostering a meaningful learning environment.

Academic development for tomorrow? Claiming a clearer role for university pedagogy through a holistic framework

ABSTRACT The aim of this theoretically oriented article is to promote the educational role and purpose of academic development in higher education by suggesting a holistic framework and theoretical articulation for university pedagogy. By discussing links between university pedagogy, academic development, and broader views of university education, our framework clarifies the concept of university pedagogy in the Nordic countries. The framework encompasses four themes: (1) the relationship between educational theory and pedagogical practice; (2) the interplay between knowledge and the curriculum; (3) the university as an organization and social institution; and (4) the agency in and of academic communities. We argue that university pedagogy operating within this framework has the potential to strengthen the scholarly foundations of the development of university education. The framework can enhance critical public discourse on the purpose of university education.

Models of the Impact of Socio-Economic Shocks on Higher Education Development

This article is devoted to the analysis of the impact of socio-economic shocks on the dynamics of higher education development. It is substantiated that, on the one hand, higher education influences the development of society and the economy, on the other hand, the development trends of a country provide both opportunities and limitations for its development. An algorithmic model for studying the impact of social and economic shocks on the development of the higher education system (HES) has been developed. To diagnose the relationship between higher education and the socio-economic development of Ukraine and Slovakia, the following indicators were used: GDP per capita, the Human Development Index, school enrollment, tertiary, and net migration. The presence of nonlinear trends in the change in indicators has been shown and portraits of the socio-economic development of the countries have been constructed. To assess the impact of socio-economic shocks on the HES, the time-series decomposition method and cross-spectral analysis were used. The time-series decomposition allowed us to identify cyclical components of indicators, based on applying cross-spectral analysis, and the most significant local harmonics and the lag of their influence on the occurrence of shocks in the HES were determined. The use of the developed models allows us to predict periods of shock points in the HES depending on shocks in the tendencies of GDP per capita and net migration.
