Training Courses

Which training courses would you like to have access to as a teacher? Why? Which is, in your opinion, the best way to share good practice amongst.

In my opinion training courses are something necessary in all the professions, and especially if you are a teacher.

That´s a good point, but which course could be good? Obviously it depends on the interest of each teacher. Personally I´m interested in vocational training and new methodology, so I would like to have access to courses where I could learn about New technologies in education, methodology, dual vocational training, English, etc…

Firstly I would like something about new technologies because we have new informatics tools with a lot of possibilities and we don´t know all the chances. I´m thinking for instance about digital blackboard, moodle o special educative centre platforms.

Secondly I´m very interested in courses about new methodology in vocational training degrees, It is a well- known fact that we can´t teach vocational training students as a high school students, and one specific way could be dual vocational training. In fact my master thesis was about this topic and conclusions were relevant.

Other interesting idea is English, in last years the number of students who are going to realise one practical period in other countries is increasing, and a lot of people is discovering the figure of Erasmus + studentship.

My last pillar is learning something about dispute resolution. The main reason is because everyone knows the vocational training students profile, especially in  medium vocational training degrees, and in my opinion is extremely important having tools to act if you have problems because if you haven´t you lose the control and the rest of the actions haven´t sense.

It seem to me that the best way to learn about this topics is listening experiences about teacher who are doing something different and have good results. In the school where I realised my practical period it something that a lot of teacher are doing continuously, and all of them agree that is a good way, and you can learn about profits and disadvantages.
