Embracing Inclusivity in Teacher Education – 3 parts of TUTOR

In our mission to promote an inclusive education, we focus on three key student groups:

The aim of TUTOR is to support the inclusion of students by helping to create a welcoming and inclusive learning environment and upskilling teachers.

To achieve optimal outcomes, we have organised our project into three dynamic parts. This is how we bring our vision to life: Part 1: Research (project year1)

In Part 1, we investigate the current state of inclusive education. Our goal is to really understand how things are right now, find the places where we can make them better, and figure out what needs to change. This phase is like the starting point of our project, giving us a solid foundation. With this knowledge, we can clearly see where things need to get better, and we can define a forward looking upskilling-strategy for teachers.

Part 2: Development (project year2) Part 2 is where ideas take shape. With the knowledge gained from our research, we get to work on the enhancement of teacher knowledge, resources and skills. Our experts will develop innovative strategies, curricula, and resources that empower educators to embrace inclusivity. This phase is about turning theory into transformative action.

Part 3: Implementation (project year3) In Part 3, we put our solutions into practice. We work hand in hand with educational institutions, teachers, and stakeholders to embed inclusivity into secondary teacher education programmes. This is the phase where we bring our vision to life, training teachers in inclusive education. If you want to know more, you can check out our website

 

Embracing Inclusivity in Teacher Education – Key student groups of TUTOR

In our mission to promote an inclusive education, we focus on three key student groups:

• Students from the LGBTQI+ community:
LGBTQI+ students bring rich perspectives and experiences that enhance our learning community. We’re committed to creating an environment of acceptance, providing safe spaces, and supporting our LGBTQI+ youth, ensuring their success both academically and personally.

• Students with migrant/refugee background and from ethnic minorities:
We think that diversity enriches education. Our project helps with cultural blending, language learning, and provides assistance to migrant and refugee students. We want to open up chances for these young individuals.

• Students facing socio-economic disadvantages:
Every student should have equal chances to succeed. We aim to promote assistance and creating a supportive environment to help students facing socio-economic disadvantages, overcome challenges and achieve their academic and life goals.

Our aim is to support the inclusion of these students by helping to create a welcoming and inclusive learning environment, with an intersectional view of the disadvantages they often currently face.
Join us on this exciting journey of promoting inclusivity. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our students and beyond!

The CONVOLUT project’s last steps

As we come closer to the end of an incredible journey, a mix of emotions fills our hearts. Therefore, the date for our final meeting has been set! On the 7th of November, we will gather once again, to close this chapter jointly.

This ProfilPASS conference will take place online. Before that, however, we have another meeting planned. Our last face-to-face meeting is scheduled for the 7th and 8th of September in Bonn.

This will be a important occasion, as it marks our final in-person interaction. As we approach these milestones, let’s reflect on the remarkable journey we’ve undertaken.Throughout this journey, we have gained experiences, created new friendships and expanded our knowledge.

We are looking forward seeing everyone!

Embracing Inclusivity in Teacher Education – Story behind Tutor

Do you know how Tutor come to be?
Four years prior to its official launch in 2022, we recognised the need for new teaching strategies to enhance teacher education.

In 2019, the European Commission called for the development of innovative approaches to improve teacher education. By 2020, following the council conclusions on the European Teacher & Trainers for the Future, the finalised Action Plan was published.

This period of thoughtful planning and preparation allowed us to shape it into the exceptional project it is developing to be. Join us on this exciting journey of promoting inclusivity. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our students and beyond!

Embracing Inclusivity in Teacher Education – Inclusive Education

Before we start to dip deeper into the project we want to share our statement of inclusivity. What does it actually mean for us?

We at Tutor think that Inclusivity means embracing differences, i.e. to be respected for your thoughts, ideas and the way you live. We firmly believe that all people, no matter their identity and personal characteristics, such as sexual orientation gender identity, Sex characteristics, age, race, skin colour and socio-economic status should have equal opportunity and access to education.

By incorporating inclusive education practices and language, we aim to address and facilitate the potential challenges that minority groups might encounter. Our commitment to inclusivity not only enriches the educational experience but also contributes to a more equitable and harmonious society.

Join us on this exciting journey of promoting inclusivity and shaping a brighter future for our students. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our students and beyond!

Why choose organic food? VET-ECOoking

In today’s world, an increasing number of people are adopting a healthier lifestyle and prioritising their well-being and environmental impact. Organic food emerges as a compelling option that offers numerous benefits to individuals and the planet.

Improved nutrition and taste, support for sustainable agriculture, and environmental protection are some of the key reasons why organic food stands out as a conscientious choice.

But keep in mind: Regional is not necessarily sustainable!

Organic farming involves few safeguards concerning water usage and little active promotion of biodiversity!

Volunteering during retirement

CONVOLUT aims to inspire and encourage people at the beginning of their retirement to engage in volunteering.

Special tools like the ProfilPASS provide support and motivation for these people. But why is volunteering so beneficial during retirement?

Retirement is a time to enjoy the successes of one’s career and embrace one’s newfound freedom.

However, many retirees are looking for some kind of meaningful way to spend their free time. Therefore, volunteering is a wonderful opportunity and brings many benefits. See above for more information!
