Synopsis
One of the first steps in the design of any VET course or program should be a thorough analysis of our learner cohort: their strengths and passions, their circumstances and context, existing skills and experiences, and the barriers that impact on their engagement. But how well do we do this?
In this session Robyn Jay chats to an inspirational young man, Simon Byrne, about his experiences as a learner and his recommendations for educators to better meet the needs of young learners and to enhance teaching practice.
