International Week 2015

June 8th  –  12th, 2015

Transition in Education, Inclusion, Research

As you know in education, the term transition refers to the four major points in the education system: when students move from elementary school to middle school, from middle school to high school, from high school to college/university and from college/university into the working world. While students experience other “transitions” during their educational journey - such as advancing from one grade level to the next - the four major points are a particular focus of educators and school reformers because transitioning students often experience significant academic, social, emotional, physical, or developmental changes that may undesirably affect their educational performance. At PH NÖ our researchers have specialized on topics like early school leavers, Neet’s (Not in Education, Employment or Training), Girls in science, Language competence for successful passages which also refer to the topic of transition in education.    -   Program International Week 2015.pdf
