Why is PBL needed? Enterprises, specially Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) need qualified workers equipped with competences. According to CEDEFOP (The European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training), COMPETENCE is the ability to apply learning outcomes adequately in a defined context (education, work, personal or professional development). Since vocational education and training(VET) is established to deliver workplace-specific skills and knowledge for the enterprises, VET schools are responsible for students to gain competence in order to raise the future-workers. Due the nature of VETs, there are many competences for students, which must be assimilated and integrated. The rationale for this project: The primary aims are to find creative ways for applying knowledge and skill in practice and to improve the the communication skills in English and 21st century. Teachers are not decision-makers. So they can not touch the curriculum at schools. But they might change the way of teaching and students learn. The consortium members aim at applying the Project Based Learning (PBL) approach as a creative way at schools in order to motivate students. ‘Project-based learning’ refers to students designing, planning, and carrying out projects that produce a publicly-exhibited output such as a product, publication, or presentation. Students can acquire the curriculum content they need through projects The objectives our project pursued are: • to establish close links among education and training and the world of work to bring the theory to life • to improve the communication skills of students with English • to adapt and develop approaches and learning materials targeted qualify students • to make VETs lectures engaging, exciting and fun • to make teachers aware of PBL training • to help to improve employability and life skills for individuals and contribute to the competitiveness of the European economy The innovative aspect of current proposal is to apply and improve the PBL approach in the training activities, which doesn't exist in our VET system, combining with language education.
