Excellence in skills

Thomas Eernola
Piria Tuomonen

Every student is talented in some way. Teachers have to recognize their talents (abilities) and help them to develop them.

Gardner's 8 areas of intelligence:
1) linguistic/verbal intelligence
2) logical/mathematical intelligence
3) musical intelligence
4) bodily-kin esthetic intelligence
5) spatial intelligence
6) naturalist intelligence
7) interpersonal intelligence
8) intrapersonal intelligence.

Learning styles:
1) Visual
2) Oral (auditory-musical)
3) Verbal (lingusitic)
4) Physical (kinesthetic)
5) Logical (mathematical)
6) Social (interpersonal)
7) Solitory (intrapersonal)

Skills competition: students competition + company's exhibition

Colleges do not train teachers. They are trained at university.

It is possible to study simultaneously in vocational school and upper-secondary school.
Vocational school - 3 years, upper secondary school - 3 years, and if simultaneously 3-4 years.
But it is difficult. They get certificate from voc school and school certificate and take matriculation exam but there is limit: only 4 subjects). 

If a student goes to vocational school after upper-secondary, he/she can study at voc school for 2 years only.
If after some other qualification, study at voc school will take 1 year, making individual plan on only necessary courses. It is competence based education.

Useful:
1) to create smth new you need to view on boundaries of different areas (music and electricity, language and gardening)
2) Learning cafe method: group work. Each group discusses and draws a picture or writes their thoughts, then choose a person in charge who will stay at this table and is responsible for presentation their ideas to other group members while other members of this group will move to another tables and listen to their person on charge and add some own ideas. It is good for sharing ideas. At the end a man in charge takes the poster and presents the ideas of the group and generated ideas by other group members. + questions.
