Biblioteca hablada de profesionales

AMPA IES Mutxamel, Spain

We try to expose an experience that we have been carrying out during the last 4 school years.

The talking library that we have created is obviously made up of a set of books. Unlike the books published on paper, on this occasion the books that are lent out are made of flesh and blood.

Moreover, it is a library specialised in professional aspects.

Each book is a person with academic and/or professional experience, who, based on their own experience, contributes to other people (in this case students from the school) the aspects of their profession that they believe to be of interest. We will call them living books.

Each edition we try to provide as wide a range of professionals as possible to show students, according to their interests, the most relevant characteristics of their profession, as well as the academic itinerary to practice it. 

Pupils are consulted about their interests and preferences. The AMPA, as far as we can, tries to meet their demands. However, we try to offer a wide range of professions, both those in demand and others that students themselves are often unaware of.

This activity involves those who are in 3rd and 4th ESO, 1st and 2nd Baccalaureate, FPB and F.P.GM.

Setmana de l’orientació: programa d’orientació acadèmica i professional a l’ESO i el Batxillerat

Ins Les Termes, Spain

The proposal presented here describes a series of actions aimed primarily at students in the 4th year of ESO and Bachillerato in the framework of a secondary school. The aim is to accompany students in the choice of a training and/or work itinerary based on the knowledge of the various academic options and activities aimed at personal self-knowledge.

We concentrate this presentation on what we call the Orientation Week, a week in the course which includes the most important activities.

The objectives to be achieved are six:

• Get to know the interests, aptitudes and notable characteristics of each student’s personality, both by the professionals involved and by the students and their families.
• Identify the most suitable training itinerary for each student according to the above variables.
• Make both students and their families aware of the current range of post-compulsory academic options.
• Offer formal and non-regulated training research tools to students.
• To introduce students to the most elementary mechanisms of job search and recruitment.
• To promote a culture of lifelong learning.

The programme focuses on baccalaureate courses and 3rd and 2nd year ESO courses. Therefore, it reaches ages 14 to 18. 

Els Instituts d’ESO es capbussen a les empreses del municipi. Projecte col·laboratiu d’apropament dels Instituts d’ESO d’un mateix municipi a les empreses de l’entorn

Instituts de Cerdanyola del Vallés (Institut Banús, Institut Jaume Mimó, Institut Gorgs, Institut Forat del Vent, Institut Pere Calders i CFT Flor de Maig), Spain

The project we present to you is the result of a network of 6 secondary schools in the same municipality of Vallès Occidental. Its aim is to bring the world of business closer to young people in the 4th year of ESO.

Bringing the 4th year ESO students closer to the companies in their municipality by making structured visits allows them to explore these more professional contents in situ and in a very close and experiential way.

In order to achieve a shared project between the different secondary schools of the same municipality that have participated, different tools and common interaction spaces have been used. In each centre, the project has been implemented in different temporary and curricular spaces.

Targets:

• Students’ self-awareness (professional interests, students’ abilities and aptitudes, occupational values…)
• Knowledge of post-compulsory training and career paths.
• Job search (creating CV, application letter, applications…)
• The world of work (work habits, professional fields, public and private sector, employment contracts…)
• The company in the different production processes and the people involved.
• The importance of key skills in the development of professional profiles, while knowing the production sectors and the business network closest to the municipality.

The students participating and recipients of the project are 4th graders from secondary schools and five students from a Special Education Center.

PROJECTE INNOVAEMPRESA (EMPRENEDORIA I ORIENTACIÓ)

PFI-PTT Montcada I Reixac (Institut la Ferreria), Spain

The project we are presenting is a complex organization as it involves the entire PFI teaching team. Each teacher intervenes in his module with the aim of creating a business plan, of an idea specific to each team. We have a triple purpose: educational, training and professionalizing. They must allow the student’s personal development and the acquisition of skills that prepare him for both social and work integration and for continuing education.

Targets

• Motivate and promote the entrepreneurial, innovative and creative spirit of students.
• Work on basic skills in the different areas in a transversal way.
• Reinforce key skills necessary for the Transition to the Professional Market and the maintenance of the workplace.
• Get to know experientially the process of creating a company, from the generation of the idea to the organizational and administrative functioning.

It is intended for the training and guidance (both training and work) of boys and girls between 16 and 21 years old in the year the course starts, who have not obtained the ESO degree.
