Changes in Academic and Vocational Education

Pages 64-76 | Published online: 18 Dec 2014
 

Abstract

The statements of educational planners on scientific and technical progress and its consequences for the school system pointed in general to a change not only in school organization but also in the subject matter being taught. The assertion that scientific and technical progress required the integration of technical knowledge into basic education meant that general education for the future had to be redefined from the ground up. The demand that vocational training avoid premature specialization because of scientific and technical progress, and that basic education be expanded instead, meant that some parts of former vocational training would be integrated into the basic occupational education. Ease of access and transfer to the biennio also required a consensus about what should be taught in all the types of schools at this level: that is, this general basic education should be structurally uniform.
