After previous brainstorming of all project participants, the following goals could be defined for the project application: - Getting to know new pedagogical concepts in the field of school social work (dealing with difficult students, threatened dropout, concepts of career orientation, etc.) - Getting to know new teaching and learning methods - Getting to know new technologies in the areas of Industry 4.0 and digitalization - Expansion and further development of digital competencies of the participants - Getting to know new concepts for teaching specialist skills - Visiting the workshops of partner schools (good practice examples) - Expansion of language skills of the participants - Expansion of the participants' intercultural competence - Getting to know further possibilities of cooperation between vocational schools and the training industry - Increasing the motivation of the colleagues involved - Improving the quality of teaching through support (e.g. further training) - Further development of the school by promoting basic and cross-sectional competencies - Exchange with colleagues from other schools
As a school, we are very focused on making the Friedrich-Dessauer-School future-proof for the topics of digitalization, Industry 4.0 (future-oriented industrial controls, data communication, data processing, data backup, modern manufacturing concepts, data-supported manufacturing optimization), electromobility, robotics, and much more, in order to be able to train the next generation of skilled workers in the dual system at a high level together with our dual partners from industry and the skilled trades. The aim is to create a comprehensive range of courses that is as future-proof as possible (equipment, skills of the teaching staff) and that is accepted and appreciated by students and training companies. Studies show that jobs and the demands placed on employees will change fundamentally in the future.
