Flexibilisierung der betrieblichen Berufsausbildung: Neue Rollen hauptamtlicher Ausbilder*innen als Schlüssel zur Modernisierung von Ausbildung (AutoUni – Schriftenreihe #161)
by Johanne F. KitzlerFlexibilität ist in der betrieblichen Berufsausbildung in Großunternehmen als Reaktion auf sich im Wandel befindende Einflussfaktoren wie der Digitalisierung und dem demografischen Wandel unverzichtbar. Besonders hauptamtliche Ausbilder*innen können diese entscheidend prägen. Durch die Einnahme neuer Rollen wie zum Beispiel der des Lernprozessbegleiters wird ein flexibleres Handeln möglich, was wiederum die Anpassungsfähigkeit der Ausbildungsabteilung im Ganzen stärkt. Johanne F. Kitzler entwickelt im Verlauf des vorliegenden Buches ein ganzheitliches Konzept, durch das hauptamtliche Ausbilder*innen nachhaltig in der Ausübung neuer Rollen unterstützt werden. Sie leistet damit einen Beitrag zu einer Flexibilisierung der betrieblichen Berufsausbildung im Allgemeinen.
Flexibility and Lifelong Learning: Policy, Discourse, Politics
by Katherine NicollWhat can the politics of discourse tell us about the discourse of politics? How are flexibility and lifelong learning positioned within policy? Flexibility and lifelong learning have become key aspects of education policy in nation states and bodies such as the European Union and Organisation of Economic Cooperation and Development in recent years. They are positioned as necessary for the knowledge economy and social inclusion. The failure to adapt through becoming more flexible and participating in lifelong learning is held up as a failure at individual, organisational and national levels. But how has that narrative come to be constructed? In what ways is it persuasive? And what forms of political action are possible and necessary? These are the questions addressed in this text. Drawing upon the work of Michel Foucault and on the notion of rhetoric, this book forensically explores examples of the work of policy texts in the discourses of education, lifelong learning and flexibility that they construct. In so doing, it argues for the need to take policy discourse seriously and not simply dismiss it as ‘spin’. Through a detailed examination of policy texts from primarily Australia, the UK and European Union, this text provides insights into the strategies through which flexibility and lifelong learning become realized and realizable as part of the common sense of educational discourse. Rather than simply rejecting these ideas, or suggesting they are merely the window dressing for the more malign interests of the knowledge economy or globalization, it suggests a politics of the wedge and possibilities for the insertion of different meanings. Central to the claims of this text are that we need to engage closely with the discursive and rhetorical strategies of policy, in order that we understand both how it is constructed and thus how it can be deconstructed.

Flexible Mindsets in Schools: Channelling Brain Power for Critical Thinking, Complex Problem-Solving and Creativity
by Julie Dunstan Susannah ColeFlexible Mindsets in Schools abandons painstaking evolution in favour of a bold, transformative revolution. It blends research and easily implementable practice to drive solutions that give learners and educators the freedom to become self-directed: to unleash questioning, problem-solving and creativity. This key text explores how to blend existing and new practices and unlock the potential of student agency as the pathway towards resilience and adaptation. The Flexible Mindsets Model fuses three components that rely on each other to drive self-directed learning: metacognition, "I CAN" mindset messages and executive function processes. This book presents a roadmap for how to create an environment and culture where learners are aware of what works when, feel safe to take learning-related risks, believe that they are capable and have the tools they need to learn. Flexible Mindsets in Schools will give educators hope that there is a way to revolutionise education to meet the needs of students during these uncertain times by taking small, manageable steps.
Flexible Multilingual Education
by Jean-Jacques WeberThis book examines the benefits of multilingual education that puts children's needs and interests above the individual languages involved. It advocates flexible multilingual education, which builds upon children's actual home resources and provides access to both the local and global languages that students need for their educational and professional success. It argues that, as more and more children grow up multilingually in our globalised world, there is a need for more nuanced multilingual solutions in language-in-education policies. The case studies reveal that flexible multilingual education - rather than mother tongue education - is the most promising way of moving towards the elusive goal of educational equity in today's world of globalisation, migration and superdiversity.
