This book explores how blended learning is reshaping vocational education and training and provides a practical roadmap for educators, administrators and policy makers alike. This book not only explains terms such as blended learning, hybrid learning, and online learning, but brings them to life through practical strategies that combine digital tools with traditional teaching methods. The book is more than just theory: it shows how blended learning can inspire student motivation, deepen engagement and boost results by combining the flexibility of online teaching with the support of face-to-face attendance. It also looks at the hurdles in practise – managing workload, upskilling teachers and ensuring that the technical tools actually meet the learning objectives. Drawing on current research, concrete case studies and innovations such as virtual simulations and learning analytics, this book helps institutions build vocational education programmes that are flexible, inclusive and forward-thinking, and serves as a timely guide to navigating the rapidly changing field of technology-enhanced education.
Transgender Children and Young People
This collection approaches the current theory and practice of transgendering children. Essays are written against the grain of the popularised medical definition of ‘the transgender child’ as a young person whose ‘true’ gender lies in the brain, or pre-social ‘identity’.
