NCVER: Effective teaching and learning: teacher perspectives on what works best for whom
This NCVER research examined VET teachers’ understanding of how people learn, and how they cater to the learning needs and preferences of their students across a range of different contexts. It found that most VET teachers use a similar overarching strategy in their teaching that aims to enable a diversity of students to learn effectively. It also describes what is needed to enable the implementation of good teaching practices, including support for new teachers, dedicated time and space to learn and use new teaching skills, and recognising the skills and human element of good VET teaching.
