How teachers can use the 3T PLAY trident framework to design activities that develop transversal skills

2024

Abstract

This handbook contains several activities for teaching transversal skills. However, your students might need to, or want to, develop skills that are not addressed in these activities. This chapter is designed for just such a situation. The activities in this chapter will guide you to identify relevant transversal skills and to design corresponding experiential learning activities. Explicit scaffolding using our trident framework will ensure that the activity you develop includes the three aspects essential for robust skill development: Knowing, Experiencing and Learning from experience. The time necessary for this self-paced activity varies between people, however you should expect to invest 60 minutes to complete a first prototype of an activity.

Life skills

Life skills are abilities for adaptive and positive behavior that enable humans to deal effectively with the demands and challenges of life. This concept is also termed as psychosocial competency. The subject varies greatly depending on social norms and community expectations but skills that function for well-being and aid individuals to develop into active and productive members of their communities are considered as life skills.

Experiential learning

Experiential learning (ExL) is the process of learning through experience, and is more narrowly defined as "learning through reflection on doing". Hands-on learning can be a form of experiential learning, but does not necessarily involve students reflecting on their product. Experiential learning is distinct from rote or didactic learning, in which the learner plays a comparatively passive role. It is related to, but not synonymous with, other forms of active learning such as action learning, adventure learning, free-choice learning, cooperative learning, service-learning, and situated learning.

Vocational education

Vocational education is education that prepares people to a skilled craft as an artisan, trade as a tradesperson, or work as a technician. Vocational Education can also be seen as that type of education given to an individual to prepare that individual to be gainfully employed or self employed with requisite skill. Vocational education is known by a variety of names, depending on the country concerned, including career and technical education, or acronyms such as TVET (technical and vocational education and training) and TAFE (technical and further education).
