Exploring Best VTET Policies and Practices through Research and Networking Initiavites

23 - 24 June 2010
The Rizqun International Hotel
Brunei Darussalam

In the endeavor to continuously strengthen its research network in Southeast Asia and beyond and to provide an avenue for sharing research experiences in vocational and technical education, the Regional Centre for Vocational and Ministers of Education Organisation (SEAMEO VOCTECH) with its partner will be holding the 2nd International Conference on VTE Research and Networking 2010. The first international conference was held in Bali, Indonesia on 7 – 8 July 2008.

This international conference is held by SEAMEO VOCTECH in collaboration with international partners such as The Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, UNESCO Bangkok, Institute of Technical Education, Singapore, Yogyakarta State University, Indonesia and University of Technology Malaysia (UTM), and with local partners such as Institut Teknologi Brunei, Department of Technical Education, and Department of ICT of the Ministry of Education, Brunei Darussalam. Keynote speakers from various continents will be invited for plenary sessions.

The 22 researchers representing 11 SEAMEO member countries under the Southeast Asian Vocational Education Research Network (SEAVERN) will also be invited to present their research findings from the 2nd and 3rd cycles of SEAVERN projects in parallel sessions. The organiser is calling for paper presenters for parallel sessions to provide opportunities for researchers, lecturers and policymakers to share their findings, best practices and policies relevant to vocational and technical education. Poster sessions, exhibits and opportunities for informal networking will also be organised.

• Speakers

Keynote Speakers will be invited to present their papers in line with the theme of the conference. The Organising Committee also invites paper presenters for the Parallel Sessions. Paper presentations in parallel sessions will be allotted 20 minute-delivery and a five-minute question and answer session. All Presenters are encouraged to bring about 20 copies of their Paper for the audience.

• Procedure for Submission of Papers

A paper abstract of 200-250 words – with a title, not exceeding twelve words, author’s name, affiliation, e-mail, conference sub-theme; Content of abstract must include: objectives, methodology / points of discussion / research. Abstract should be emailed to the Conference Secretariat at voctech@brunet.bn / conference@voctech.org.bn no later then Friday, 14 May 2010.

The Paper Review Committee will inform the Abstract Sender by Tuesday, 18 May 2010, whether the proposal has been accepted.

Soft and hard copies of the Full Paper selected for the conference must be sent to the Conference Secretariat no later than Monday, 7 June 2010. If these materials are not received by this date, the Organising and Planning Committee reserves the right to withdraw the paper from presentation.

• Criteria for Acceptance

Relevance to the theme of the conference and freshness and originality of approach are among the major considerations in the acceptance of papers. The Organising and Planning Committee reserves the right to decline paper proposals without assigning reasons.

Enhancing Mathematics Learning in Primary School Using Realistic Mathematics Education(RME)

Information of Training Programme:
Enhancing Mathematics Learning in Primary School Using Realistic Mathematics Education(RME)
28th of February - 27th of March 2010

Rationale:

RME (Realistic Mathematics Education) is a theory of mathematics education which combines the concept of mathematics as human activities, how students learn mathematics and how to teach mathematics. In the concept of RME, students should be given opportunity to reinvent mathematics concepts and ideas by themselves. The reinvention process is better done by exploration of various contextual problems.

Another notable difference between RME and the traditional approach to mathematics education is the rejection of the mechanistic, procedure-focused way of teaching in which the learning content is split up in meaningless small parts and where the students are offered fixed solving procedures to be trained by exercises, often to be done individually. RME, on the contrary, has a more complex and meaningful conceptualization of learning. The students, instead of being the receivers of ready-made mathematics, are considered as active participants in the teaching-learning process, in which they develop mathematical tools and insights. In addition, students are also offered opportunities to share their experiences with others.

Therefore, teacher should have opportunity to experience teaching mathematics using Southeast Asia RME. It means that teacher will use the RME concept, but teacher uses his own culture and environment as the context of his teaching.


Aims:

To provide primary school teachers and mathematics educators the opportunity to understand RME theory.

To enhance primary school teachers and mathematics educators competence in mathematics teaching and learning using RME.

To provide primary schools teachers and mathematics educators the opportunity to experience SEA-RME lesson.


Expected Outcome:

1. At the end of the course participants should be able to:
2. show understanding of the basic concepts of RME
3. use RME approach in mathematics teaching and learning
4. acquire skills and abilities to develop classroom-experiment-based RME materials
5. design school-based RME development program

Course Content:

1. Introduction to RME
2. Selected topics
3. Design research or product development
4. Program design

Participants:

Twenty four (24) key teachers in Primary Schools. The number of participants needed as follows.
Country Number of Participant Specification of Participant
