Study visit in Slovenia

A BlendVET study visit to Slovenia in April 2023 gave us first-hand experience of how vocational and technical schools have implemented blended learning approaches in their classrooms and workshops.

The main aim of the BlendVET project is to explore the integration of digital technologies in teaching and learning in vocational and technical schools. Throughout 2022/2023 participating members from universities in Slovenia, Iceland and Norway have developed professional support for teachers at our partner schools and piloted pedagogical approaches to blended learning in vocational training. The study visit to Slovenia in April 2023 was a great opportunity for us all to build further knowledge and exchange experiences and best practices across borders.

Here are some snapshots from the trip:
