The rapid changes that characterize the world of work ask school and university to critically rethink the way to facilitate creative skills. The coding and the development of computational thinking are declined in this context as facilitators of these skills in everyday life and in working contexts. The contribution presents a case study that describes peer tutoring laboratory activities focused on learning coding skills that involved students, enrolled in the Degree Course in Education and Training Sciences of the University of Siena, as a form of alternative curricular internship during the lockdown period. The study shows how students approached this form of internship, how they designed peer tutoring sessions and the gains in terms of learning and professional development.

Without doubt Great Britain led the world into the Industrial Revolution, and for a considerable period up till the second half of the nineteenth century it could rightly consider itself as ‘the workshop of the world’. The author traces up till recent times why it was that Great Britain lost that position, mainly because of its reliance on engineers learning on the job by picking things up for themselves and learning by rule-of-thumb and ignoring the need for a soundly based education and well planned training. Since the end of World War II various attempts have been made to rectify this position, but without much success, until the Finniston Committee Report. The organization of the Engineering Council, set up in 1982 on the recommendation of the Finniston Committee, is considered, and in particular its responsibility for the engineering profession and for changing the public's perception of industry and the engineering profession. The author expresses his opinion on the initial education and training of engineers. He comments on the need to reconsider whether mechanical engineering as presently taught is a viable subject, or if a course spanning mechanical and electronic engineering is needed. He sees the objective of engineering education as being a design for total life cost, and he explores how this may be achieved within a total technology concept. Finally, he considers how to achieve better university/industry collaboration which is at the heart of effective education and training of engineers. He describes the Technology Centre concept recently set up in the Queen's University of Belfast, which integrates the services and resources provided for local industry and those required by the engineering departments of the University as well as providing for continuing education and training. He sees this as the way ahead in achieving close collaboration with industry.

The World

Ability to do problem solving will be greatly influenced by how the flow of thinking in decomposing a problem until it finds the root of the problem so that it can determine the best solution. There is currently a growing recognition around the world that all fields require a prerequisite ability, namely to think logically, in a structured manner, and use computational tools to rapidly model and visualize data. This ability is known as Computational Thinking (CT). In this study, the author applied the computational thinking key concept in a case study to train structured thinking in problem solving. Computational thinking key concept includes Decomposition, Pattern recognition, Abstraction, and lastly use algorithms when they design simple steps to solve problems. Based on our case study that has been model, the result shows us that Computational Thinking can be used to train structured thinking in problem solving in everyday life

Digitalization has transformed all aspects of life, from social interactions to the working environment and education, something that accelerated with the emergence of COVID-19. The same stands for education and training activities, where the use of digital tools has been gradually advancing and become merely online because of the virus. This brought forth the need to discuss further the applications, benefits, and challenges of digital tools within the framework of the education and training process, and the need to study examples of successful applications. This study aims to support both these requirements by presenting the case study of REFUGEEClassAssistance4Teachers project and its outcomes.

Practical Recommendations

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to address the advantages of education and training in creating the “Audiovisual/Digital Media Essay” (AV/DME), starting from visual and cinematic thinking as a way of setting up, developing and concluding an argument. Design/methodology/approach – Recognising the advantages to education and training of the “AV/DME” this paper explores ways of enabling visually disciplined students to work on film theory within their chosen medium, and to develop arguments incorporating audiovisual sources, using appropriate academic skills. It describes a hands-on BA/MA workshop held at Newport Film School (May 2011) and subsequent initial implementation of an examinable DME. The paper contextualises the issue in the light of practice-led and practice-based research and of parity with written dissertations. Drawing on analysis of in-depth interviews with students and tutors, it makes practical recommendations for how to resource, staff and support the implementation and continuation of the AV/DME and/or dissertation. Findings – The paper feeds back from both students and staff on the running of an initial AV/DME workshop and finds that the Film School Newport is suited to running the AV/DME and suggests a framework for its support. Research limitations/implications – The study needs to be followed up when the students complete their full dissertations. Practical implications – The AV/DME needs sufficient technical and human resources to support student learning. Originality/value – The paper provides a clear and original framework for teaching, supporting and assessing the AV/DME. This framework can be disseminated beyond the University of Wales Newport, and can be used to teach the AV/DME in further contexts and to wider groups of students.

Purpose With critical reviews of previous studies in workplace learning, this paper aims to investigate workplace learning for pre-service teachers’ practice and quality teaching and learning in technical vocational education and training: key to professional development. Design/methodology/approach The study adopted multistage sampling technique to select sample for the study. Empirical analysis was adopted to analyse the data collected from technical vocational education and training pre-service teachers. Findings The result of the study revealed that the constructs of social learning theory had a stronger linkage with the constructive teaching than traditional management. Originality/value This study emphasizes the need to adequately train pre-service teachers on instructional delivery processes, building strong relationship with learners and build the ability to organize and execute necessary actions required to successfully carry out a specific educational task in a particular context.
