23-24 March 2000
Rydges, London Circuit, Canberra
Overview
The 2000 AVETRA Conference was held on 23 and 24
March 2000 at Rydges, Canberra. The conference provided an
opportunity for all those interested in VET and VET research
to focus on future research needs and the future of research
in the sector.
The conference program will include around 80
papers (some 30 more than previous years) as well as a number
of innovative workshops and other sessions on research methods.
Themes
The conference sought to map and describe research
conducted by universities, TAFE Institutes, other VET providers,
Industry Training Advisory Bodies (ITABs), private consultants,
unions and teachers, trainers and students to examine the
implications of such diversity on:
- the changing nature of work - implications for VET policy
and practice
- emerging technologies - can research support planning
and the delivery of training?
- the internationalisation of VET
- enterprise and educational innovation
- flexible delivery approaches - evaluating outcomes and
informing learning
- research and technology, using technology in research
- implications for researchers and the researched.
