Kritische Anmerkungen
Warum der EU AI Act uns (endlich) zum Handeln zwingt, Literacy zu wenig ist – und Future Skills die Antwort sein könnten.
Anforderungen und Qualitätskriterien für Open Educational Badges
Ergebnisse und Fallbeispiele aus einer Fokusgruppe mit Unternehmen im Rahmen des Projekts Open Educational Badges
In einer zunehmend digitalisierten Arbeitswelt, in der klassische Abschlüsse allein nicht mehr ausreichen, rückt die Fähigkeit, spezifische Kompetenzen zu dokumentieren und zu validieren, immer stärker in den Fokus. Unternehmen suchen nach Möglichkeiten, die Kompetenzen ihrer Bewerber und Mitarbeitenden sichtbar zu machen und gezielt weiterzuentwickeln. Open Educational Badges (OEB) bieten hierbei eine flexible und transparente Lösung, um Qualifikationen und Fähigkeiten darzustellen.
Future Skills im Diskurs
Eine Kritik der Kritik
Unter die Lupe genommen
In der Debatte um Future Skills und deren Relevanz für die Hochschulbildung erfährt das Konzept sowohl wachsende Unterstützung als auch kritische Auseinandersetzung. Mein Beitrag bezieht sich auf die Kritikpunkte von Kalz und Reinmann (2024) ordnet deren Kritik konstruktiv ein und zeigt auf, wie sie im Diskurs um Future Skills zu verorten sind, wo sie zu kurz greifen und wo sie ihn bereichern.
Future Skills Kompass
Der Future Skill Kompass bietet eine gezielte Möglichkeit, sich mit Future Skills zu beschäftigen. Das Onlinetool basiert auf dem in der NextSkills-Studie entwickelten Future Skills-Modell der Arbeitsgruppe next.education.
Ein Plädoyer: Von Employability zu Societal Agency
Eine (neue) Leitperspektive für Future Skills Ansätze?!
Wir sind überzeugt: Die Herausforderungen der Zukunft verlangen mehr als bloße Beschäftigungsfähigkeit. Societal Agency – die Fähigkeit und Bereitschaft, gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen aktiv, verantwortungsvoll und innovativ mitzugestalten – muss zum neuen (?) Leitbegriff für Future Skills werden.In unserem "Standpunkt" schlagen wir vor, die Diskussion um Future Skills weiter zu profilieren. Nicht allein für Arbeitsmärkte, sondern für eine komplexe, offene und dynamische Gesellschaft. Und ja - vielleicht sind wir uns/ viele von uns schon einig - aber ist das auch in allen Future Skills Ansätzen so sichtbar?
EngageAll

Das Projekt EngageAll zielt darauf ab, „inklusive Hochschulsysteme aufbauen“, insbesondere durch die Förderung von gesellschaftlichem Engagement, von informellem Lernen und außercurricularen Aktivitäten sowie durch die Anerkennung von ehrenamtlicher und gemeinnütziger Arbeit in den akademischen Ergebnissen der Studierenden.
