CURIOSITY
In preparing students for the work and social world, it is
particularly important for teachers to foster in their students
the reflective capacity for themselves and for the school and
professional reality.
Students' reflection on themselves can be made through
dialogue focused on the personal impact of academic
experiences, confronting new content, themes and academic
experiences (e.g. study visits, curriculum extension
activities, etc.) to foster new interests and skills.
Reflection on school and professional opportunities can be
done by helping students relate academic content to
professional activities, contacting the labuor market through
study visits or curriculum extension activities, mitigating
stereotypes by showing that occupations and skills equal
development regardless of gender, ethnicity or socio-
economic status, to provide opportunities in the scope of
vocational and educational training, without value judgment
or prejudices.
TRUST
Teachers can foster the confidence of their students when
they promote academic success, the exploration of skills
and competences, the realisation of abilities and aspirations,
positive attitudes towards themselves and their school
performance, alternatives and unconventional solutions to
solve problems.
