Skills Education

Hands up who’s ever had trouble getting students to do their work?

Getting and keeping students engaged in learning can be one of the toughest challenges for educators. Curiosity is an innate trait, yet research suggests that as we get older, it diminishes, and in some cases, is actually squelched by the very system designed to teach us. 

Given the renewed focus on supporting students in Vocational Education, it seems logical that as educators, we refresh ourselves on one of the basic tenets for learning.

This session is designed to acknowledge the vital importance of curiosity in skilling lifelong learners.
