What causes to be a slow learner?

• Temporary emotional strain
• Lack of meta-cognition
• Traumata

Cognitive disability
Neurological structure
The variety of causes
Disadvantages due to
Strategic behavioral deficits

• Economic conditions
• Cyclical conditions
• Adverse social living conditions
• Family-related
• Enviormental-related

• Poor memory performance
• Learning behavior
• Information-processing weakness

8
The existence of coherency
Youth with migration backgrounds
School-drop-outs
Close connection between young unqualified adults
and disadvantaged young people
Group of slow learners
Lower level of school certifications
young people with health limitations
Young adults without a chance of a vocational
education or job
9
Slow Learners and the communitys future
Employment
Social inclusion

• Vocational schools as well as SME's often lack
  students valuable resources
• The vocational-pedagogical competences to
  successfully teach qualified disadvantaged
  people, is lacking in the training staff.

Changing of qualifications requirement
Changing the framework for slow learners to get
the qualification
e.g. Mechatronic/ Car-Mechatronic
10
Action-based learning
Develop learners personality
Inclusion of their social situation
competences
practising skills
abilities
Comprehensive perception of action
Action-based learning/ embedded learning
11
Action-based learning

• Based on a comprehensive concept of action which
  includes creative and design aspects

• Opens up learning opportunities that enable
  individual initiative, personal responsibility
  and independent action to solve tasks and problems

• Places the learners with their individual
  learning requirements at the centre (and not the
  subject-matter, or the curriculum, etc.)

Social Work, Education and Training, Germany
12
Action-based learning

• Involves the learners actively in the planning
  and design of the learning process

• Supports the identification of learners with the
  learning subject-matter, learners feel
  responsible for the success of the learning
  process

• Including learners in the planning supports the
  linguistic and substantive handling of the
  learning subject.

13

Futur of trainings and further trainings

Conceptguidelines

• Holistic in thinking acting
• Interactive learning in social learning processes
• Methodological competence problem-solving
  skills
• Working in different learning and teaching teams
• Thinking and acting in systems/ complex
  correlations.
