Abstract:
Schools must promote scientific vocations designing teaching-learning strategies that involve teachers, pupils, scientists and the students’ families. Keen on this idea we have developed a didactic participative design to promote science learning in students of primary and secondary schools. With the collaboration of teachers from three primary schools in Nelson (New Zealand) and three high schools (secondary education) in Asturias (Spain), educational sessions were organized where scientists posed research challenges to 323 students. While they were learning key concepts about science they were instructed about basic scientific methodologies with the aim that they could carry out some research by themselves, both individually and in groups. The transfer of knowledge acquired during the sessions transcended the school environment because students shared their research with their families. Scientific vocation can be worked up in the educational environment by changing the teaching methodology and introducing current and relevant scientific topics. Teachers should count on the active participation of scientists for this. When the students of these educational levels are involved in real research their scientific vocation is stimulated, as is the transfer of scientific knowledge to the families.

Abstract:
Résumé A la fin du XIXe siècle, en France, trois sortes d'écoles dispensent l'enseigne- ment secondaire tel qu'on l'entend aujourd'hui, soit les lycées et collèges, les écoles primaires supérieures et les écoles à vocation plutôt professionnelle. Ces dernières se divisent également en trois catégories — Ecoles pratiques, Ecoles professionnelles et Ecoles d'arts et métiers — et ce sont elles qui constituent l'objet de cette recherche. L'auteur s'arrête d'abord à la période d'avant la première guerre mondiale, c'est-à-dire aux années 1880-1914, puis il s'attarde plus longuement à la période de l'entre-deux-guerres. On nous renseigne sur la formation professionnelle des ouvriers qualifiés et des cadres techniques pendant ces deux décennies; on élabore sur les liens qui s'établissent entre ces écoles, le gouvernement et l'industrie; on établit enfin un bilan du progrès réalisé dans l'enseignement professionnel tout au long de cette période. Restent les années de l'après-guerre et l'auteur esquisse à grands traits les divers changements qui se sont produits dans ces institutions depuis 1945.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents the case for how students can be helped to increase their scientific vocation by experimental work and the introduction of particle physics into pre-university studies. These two ideas are the two main lines of work of the ADMIRA initiative, which has been created by individuals belonging to different and complementary educational and research institutions. The initiative consists of a network of schools that share Minipix devices, a readout system for the Timepix detector designed at CERN in the framework of the Medipix2 Collaboration. The schools receive logistical and technical support from the local University (the University of Barcelona) and from CERN. The centres involved and the objectives, as well as the characteristics of the project are presented. The technical and didactic materials available are also shown. Finally, some initiative data has been analysed to show its rapid growth, and some students’ research is presented showing the diversity of tasks that can be done with such detectors.

Abstract:
The fundamental goal of India's formal education system is to improve students' academic success in public examination results, since the Indian educational system is mostly centred on examinations. As a result, parents choose to send their children to schools with higher academic accomplishment. Because a student with a high grade point average and a high percentage of marks has a lot of options when it comes to entrance, training, and vocation. The necessity of the hour is to boost academic attainment. It's because of certain influencing elements, such as intake, process, and result. An institution's overall academic growth leads to more and higher accomplishment in public examinations. The purpose of this research is to examine the state's overall academic accomplishment in both public and private high schools. Specifically, the essay aims to investigate and determine the causes for the disparities in student academic success between government and private high schools in Warangal East, Hyderabad State, between 2009 and 2011. Furthermore, based on (a) the results of the research and (b) the opinions of the principals of reputable institutions, the article seeks to uncover some suggestion methods for the development of high school education in the mentioned district.

Abstract:
This study finds out the relationship between work performance and job satisfaction among teachers of junior high schools in Philippines. They were well aware of the facts of their job satisfaction, e.g., school policies, supervision methods, pay and other benefits, relationships between faculty and students, further growth and promotions, workplace conditions, achievement and recognition, and responsibility and accountability. It was concluded that teachers’ job satisfaction could produce an effectiveness and sustainability in educational institutions. Using a descriptive method, a non-probability convenience sampling was employed for 70 public school teachers. Two existing validated questionnaires were used: the Three-Component Model Employee Commitment Survey, to surface the level of work commitment of teachers in an organisation; and Job Satisfaction Survey, to evaluate the teachers’ overall job satisfaction. Findings show a significant relationship between work commitment and job satisfaction, specifically in terms of position and educational level. In addition, teachers are satisfied with the people within the organisation; however, it also shows that teachers are not satisfied with too much paper work. It is recommended that teachers should consider the teaching job as a profession and as a vocation. Keywords: High schools in Philippines, job satisfaction, descriptive method, work commitment.

Abstract:
A teacher with self-efficacy is more able to accomplish any task from the management so that he is engaged to his work, and a teacher who regards his work as a calling has the proper motivation to work better. The aim of this study was to find whether there is a correlation between teacher’s self-efficacy and work engangement and whether there is a correlation between the meaning of work as a calling and work engagement of private high school teachers in Surabaya. The subjects (N = 87) were teachers from three private schools in Surabaya. The data was collected through close-ended statements scales with five options of answer that were later analyzed through a nonparametric correlation test with SPSS 19.00. The result showed a correlation between teachers’ self-efficacy and work engagement (r = .08; p < .05) and a correlation between the meaning of work as a calling and work engagement (r = .612; p < .05). Based on the result, it could be concluded that teachers’ self efficacy and meaning of work as a calling could not be treated as one unit, but each correlated independently with their work engagement.

The choice of a profession is one of the important stages in a person's life, it can be said that it determines most of the future life. The choice of profession is, first of all, the choice of a person. When choosing a profession, a person chooses not only the necessary means to meet material needs, but also a way of life. A choice made without regard to the profession, or only taking into account external circumstances or the interests of others, is an experiment that can cost a person and the people around him dearly. The purpose of our study was to study the professional interests and professional orientation of the students of the pilot schools, to determine how well they are informed about the issues of vocational education and what factors influence the choice of a profession. We should also conduct a training on the topic: "Choose a profession." According to the hypothesis, the students of our school are less informed about the issues of vocation, and are also insufficiently prepared for the right choice of profession. The results of the study confirmed our assumption. In particular, it was found that the students of our school are less informed in matters of vocational training, and are also insufficiently prepared for the right choice of profession, which means taking into account their own interests, skills and abilities when choosing a profession. Pupils experience a lack of information on issues related to professions. In addition, respondents believe that the school needs the work of a psychologist who will provide qualified advice on issues related to the choice of profession. It is noteworthy that it is important that pupils are better informed about what skills and abilities are necessary for mastering different professions. Therefore, at each stage of the study, it was important to determine the correspondence of skills and abilities to the chosen profession.

Abstract:
The central objective of the study was to better understand 5th and 6th year school pupils’ perceptions of nursing as a career choice and to obtain current data regarding the recruitment situation pertaining to school leavers pursuing nursing as a career choice. This was achieved by utilising a multi-strategy approach which involved the use of a self-administered questionnaire (n = 1062) and the interviews of 20 paradigmatic cases. The school pupils came from 11 schools, with different socio-demographic profiles, from one educational area in Scotland. The study found that only 8.8% (n = 56) of school pupils who had made a career choice had chosen to pursue nursing as a career, despite the fact that 82.4% of the school pupils in the sample had the necessary academic qualifications to enter the student nurse education programme. Merely 21.2% of all the pupils had actually considered nursing as a career choice. The findings would appear to suggest that those pupils who had chosen to pursue nursing as a career choice are committed to this choice. As 93% of the pupils would still continue to pursue nursing as a career choice even if they obtained better grades in their examinations than they expected. Equally resolute in their choice were the pupils who had chosen not to pursue nursing. Of the school pupils in the sample who had not chosen to pursue nursing as a career choice 88.5% of the school pupils stated that even though they did not get the exam grades that they expected they still would not pursue nursing as a career. What was also significant was that of the school pupils who had not chosen nursing as a career choice 86.9% of the pupils stated that they would not consider nursing as a career option in the future. The gender breakdown of school pupils who had made a career choice showed that 2.5% of male pupils who had made a career choice had chosen to pursue nursing. 14% of female school pupils who had made a career choice had chosen to pursue nursing. Further examination in relation to the gender breakdown of those pupils who had chosen to follow nursing as a career revealed that males only accounted for 12.5% whereas females accounted for 87.5%. This would seem to propose that a gender bias still exists in relation to nursing as a career choice. Nursing was not ranked particularly highly by the pupils as a career choice. Male pupils ranked nursing 13th out of the 14 main career choice categories. While female pupils ranked nursing 8th out of the 14 main career choice categories, this being only slightly better than secretarial/administration. Parents appeared to have a major influence on the pupils’ career choice and there was evidence that parents as well as further significant others were influencing against a career in nursing. Nursing does not seem to be a popular career choice among school pupils. There is strong evidence from the questionnaire data to suggest that there are a number of problem indicators which could propose that recruitment of school pupils into nursing could prove extremely difficult even with the proposed increase in the number of school leavers entering higher education. This could have a serious impact on nursing care delivery within the United Kingdom as the nursing population continues to age. The paradigmatic cases interviewed were 20 high academic achieving school pupils who at one stage in their career choice process had considered nursing as a career choice. Despite considering nursing as a possible career choice none of the 20 pupils went on to pursue nursing as a career. The qualitative interview findings appeared to suggest that nursing was not a credible career choice consideration for high achieving pupils. There was a very strong feeling amongst the pupils that nursing would be a waste of their academic qualifications with a belief that nursing was not a career choice for intelligent pupils with good examination grades. Also that they could help people at a much higher level than nursing by becoming a doctor with a prevailing belief that knowledge and caring are polarised – doctors cure and nurses only care for patients. The status of nursing as a career choice was not high amongst the pupils and this was influenced by the type of person that they had observed who were nurses mostly, in their opinion, women who were weak and had no power within society. Also the perceived nature of the job that nurses do with the prominent belief that what nurses do is principally practical in nature having no intellectual aspects, for example making beds, washing and feeding patients. The influence of significant others, these being specifically parents, guardians, guidance teachers and careers advisors was very apparent in the data in that they had a very negative view regarding nursing as a career choice for high academic achieving school pupils. Participants reported that their parents were actively and vigorously discouraging them away from a career in nursing because of the pupils’ good examination grades and the belief that the pupils could do something better than nursing. Also the participants reported that their guidance teachers and careers advisors were assertively steering them away from nursing as a career choice because of their perception that nursing was a low status career choice requiring little intellectual ability and was on a par with hairdressing, office work and being a secretary. In addition the school pupils stated that guidance teachers and careers advisors were more interested in and attempted to have a greater influence on the career choice of the high academic achieving school pupils opposed to other less academic pupils. Only two of the pupils stated that they believed that their career choice was their own decision. With the majority of school pupils valuing the opinion of their parents regarding career choice and with parents along with associated significant others being a major influence on the school pupils’ career choice and advising against a career in nursing. There was strong evidence from the interview data to suggest that the chances of recruiting high academic achieving school pupils into nursing would appear to be negligible. There was also evidence that the image of nursing as an occupation was an important determining factor in the school pupils’ career choice. The pupils displayed a negative image of nursing and this was influenced by a number of factors. The negative image of nursing depicted in television programmes; the negative image of nursing portrayed by people who are nurses; the sexual stereotype image of female and male nurses; and the image that it is very easy to get into train to be a nurse. What was also concerning was that the pupils had few positive and contemporary images of nursing. Also with regard to the image of nursing the data showed that the pupils considered it important to join a profession. Nursing was deemed not to be a profession and did not merit being a profession because it was believed that the entry to student nurse education programmes is not strictly controlled therefore it is easy to get into nursing. There was a strong consensus among the high achieving school pupils regarding their image of the archetypical school pupil who would select nursing as a career choice – their view was of a predominantly unexceptional individual who was mostly female, no more than average intelligence, kind, caring, good listener, good practically and can follow task orders. This view of the typical school pupil who would enter nursing as a career, that of a person with a low academic achievement record, conflicts with their own personal typology and thus became a further important dissuading factor regarding nursing as a career choice for them.

Abstract:
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) has proposed that economic growth in developing countries can best be achieved through a good delivery of technical/vocational education targeted to the specific needs of the country and its economy. In Iraq, the state regards technical/vocational education within the secondary system of education as the main source of the middle-rank skilled labour needed to satisfy the requirements of the economy. This study analyses the development of technical/vocational secondary education policies in Iraq. It seeks to examine this system in relation to the country's geopolitical, economic, social and cultural circumstances. The first chapter considers the arguments for and against I technical and vocational: education. The second chapter is concerned with Iraq's geopolitical position and examines the structure of its society. It will also examine the evolution and development of the Iraqi economy, with the main focus on the period after 1968. The third chapter is an analysis of the existing Iraqi educational system, including principles, aims and priorities, levels of education and quantitative growth, education finance and administration, curriculum and examination system. The fourth chapter reviews the nature of and growing need for technical and vocational education throughout the history of the country. The fifth chapter evaluates the existing system of technical and vocational education by firstly, examining its characteristics and then the problems facing it. Implications for planning and the reform of technical and vocational education in Iraq emerge from the conclusions and suggestions which constitute the final part.

Abstract:
Since the successive introduction of “learning field“ oriented curricula in Germany, teaching at vocational schools has been based on concrete actions. The underlying curricula describe business-oriented learning fields. The translating of these learning fields into pedagogical learning situations is the responsibility of the vocational curriculum conferences at the individual vocational school level. This means that, despite there being an identical curricular basis, it is possible for individual schools to apply heterogeneous content emphases within the education programmes for commercial vocations. This study examines the correlation between such heterogeneous content with regard to the subject of economics and the person characteristics of the relevant teachers. In order to determine the individual significance of economics curricula as part of the education programme for commercial occupations on a learning field basis, an online survey was conducted among commerce teachers. The findings for the correlations indicate a relationship between the relevance of economics content and individual experience of teaching staff with regard to that particular academic discipline, because a high relevance rating correlates with individual tangencies within the teacher’s educational biography.

Abstract:
During OECD TALIS research in years 2013 and 2018 high level of school evaluation was found from principals and teachers’ viewpoint. Despite several external problems, principals and teachers found their schools as a very good working place that could be suggested to other colleagues. This opinion points to a good school climate. Such a factor leads to a good learning environment and increases the learning outcomes of students. The international survey OECD TALIS 2013 had an additional national level survey adapted for vocational education and training schools (TALIS PROF). Despite some differences in levels general and vocational schools provide, there are some issues of education management that might indicate the overall climate in schools of Latvia, including general and vocational education. As TALIS PROF was not continued in next OECD TALIS research cycle in year 2018, the additional survey for principals of vocational schools was provided in year 2022. The additional survey was adapted from the survey OECD TALIS 201, including specific vocational education targeted questions and actual education environment and climate questions from survey of OECD TALIS 2018. The aim of this research was to find school principals’ attitude to questions regarding school climate. In order to find best answers regarding the school climate, resources were analysed. Independent sample tests were provided to find out differences between groups of principals. The study compared the opinions expressed by general and vocational school principals of survey year 2013 in order to find whether there were differences between their opinions on school climate questions. To find if there were differences between opinions on school climate questions, general and vocational school principals’ views of survey year 2018 and results of the adapted survey 2022 were compared. The research found that principals of schools in survey cycles year 2013, 2018, 2022 evaluated highly the school climate. Mainly there is no crucial difference between general and vocational education principals’ opinions regarding questions on the school climate.

Abstract:
Apprenticeships learning is part of the ongoing educational reforms to combat youth unemployment in Kenya. This paper presents findings of a study that assessed five donor-funded apprenticeships training projects using a descriptive research design. Using a sample of 54 respondents from apprentices, employers, schoo-based and in-company trainers, the study established that apprenticeship training improved the quality of vocational training. Moreover, apprenticeship training equipped trainees with market-ready skills that enabled a school-to work transition for employment, with a higher employer preference of apprenticeships’ graduates compared to the school-based track. Similarly, the collaborative engagement of employers during training gave them a source of low cost labor and high productivity so that they could support trainees and the vocational schools. The study recommended the need to mainstream apprenticeships learning in formal vocational training as a sure way of increasing employment opportunities.

Abstract. Vocational and technical education group is the main training object of new high-quality talents in our school, and teaching is the basic link of Vocational and technical education. The current teaching mode of Vocational and technical education has the disadvantages of emphasizing theory and neglecting practice. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss the teaching mode of Vocational and technical education in our school. Based on the current situation of the teaching mode of Vocational and technical education in our school, this paper puts forward the teaching and assessment mode of “combining theory with practice” and “combining thinking cultivation with practice”.

Abstract:
This study investigates Korea's success in the area of skills development and what role the Korean government played during the stages of Korean economic development since the 1960s. Major achievements connected with the Korean skills development system over the last few decades are described and evaluated. However, it is worth noting that the Korean system has confronted challenges, arising from rapid changes in the economic and social environment that have put the sustainability of its current skills development system into question. In this regard, this study also analyzes the direction the Korean skills development system is moving toward and makes policy recommendations concerning how current challenges may be better handled.In doing so, the notion of lifelong skills development is derived. This notion signals a shift away from a government-led, supply driven model towards a locally based, demand-driven model, in order to align the supply of education and training programs with the needs of local business, and the improved effectiveness of Korea's skills development system over the coming years. The Korean government has played a key role in establishing the skills development system over the last few decades. Government intervention in skills development has addressed both the public and private sector. In the public sector, government initiatives established vocational education and training institutions in response to rising demand for skills, and according to economic development strategy. In the private sector, government legislation established regulations and institutions that incentivized private employer investment in in-plant training by providing financial support (e.g., levy-exemption) until the late 1990s, with the levygrant system under the Employment Insurance Act effective since 1995. These measures helped employers to bear costs related to training prospective and existing employees. Additionally, national qualification systems helped job seekers to undertake vocational training, which was in high demand throughout the labor market. This paper briefly describes challenges and concerns connected with establishing a lifelong skills development system in Korea. The analysis will focus on how the existing government-led VET system may be transformed into a public-private partnership based model that provides better VET programs. Additionally, the VET system needs to foster lifelong employment or employability rather than lifelong jobs, which was previously the cornerstone of the Korean employment system. Regarding career development, policy intervention needs to disestablish the "monorail" career trajectory of school-work-retirement, in favor of diversified careers by establishing flexible and competency-based qualification systems. This paper also describes some examples of instances of application of the lifelong skills development system in Korea. In-depth case studies are carried out regarding the development and application of National Competency Standards, the local-industry tailored skills development system, and reform of secondary vocational education focused on specialized vocational and Meister Schools in Korea. However, the Korean central government must still perform a significant role in managing and monitoring skills development. It should continue to use policy to foster public-private partnership in skills development, as local municipalities and sectoral stakeholders are yet to develop their own capabilities in this area. In addition, National Competency Standards (NCS) and regional Human Resources Development (HRD) committees need to further develop their roles and functions in order to better meet the diversified demands of business and employees and adapt to rapid technological and organizational changes. To further expedite the fine-tuning of skill policy in rapidly changing markets, forecasting skill demand and supply requires further attention, although it is becoming incr
