This document discusses international teacher training programs between Finland and BRICS countries, including successful case examples. It outlines the strategic aims of the VET Teachers for the Future program between Finland and Brazil, which aims to support innovation, technology, and institutional and participant targets based on Brazil's national strategic areas. The program involved 60 Brazilian VET teachers over two cohorts in 2014-2015, and emphasized quality, impact, and knowledge transfer through collaborative and competence-based learning models. Initial feedback found the program objectives were relevant and participants were highly satisfied. The document also discusses developing new theories of international teacher training and the growing interest in China and South Africa for competence-based education models.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

19. Quality, Impact and Transparency
• Quality management plan based on Finnish Higher Education Evaluation Council
guidelines for higher education
• Participatory approach to service design – stakeholders working together with
administrators: ministry, IF, teachers from Brazil, teacher trainers from Finland
• Individual learning paths – a trademark of Finnish education system
• Impact is ensured by the above approaches as well as relevant pedagogical strategies:
learning assignments are designed so that they support own institution development
and build bridges - transfer to own context, knowledge transfer and exchange, relevance
testing of ideas - from the very beginning
• Learning process is transparent and open: Facebook, blogs, discussions and dialogue,
guidance and support, applied research and publications, conferences
• Final seminars and alumni networks in the target country establish a forum to
disseminate experiences and knowledge
20. QA Findings

• Feedback collected by surveys and interviews
• The programme objectives proven relevant, participant satisfaction
high: in a scale of 1-4 on the level 3,7-3,9 depending on the group
• Critical points
• More personal councelling and guidance in home country
• Teachers as learners - a change in the mindset
• The importance of reality testing of innovative pedagogical methods before participants
21. Theory development
• A learning group (Compare with Poikela & Poikela (2012,12)
• A group of foreign, adult teacher-participants in a new country, in a new
culture, in new kinds of schools and learning environments
• The teacher-participants have to change perspectives from teachers to
learners
• The group explores actions, listens, participates, does and learns together
22. Theory development
• Everyday life (Compare with Poikela & Poikela (2012,12)
• Acting as well in schools as well as outside schools, in public and private life
• How and when do local people do things and perform acts in schools
• How does the society and community deal with education?
• What do the people do in practice?
• How do they interact?
23. Theory development
• History and perspectives for the future (Compare with Poikela &
Poikela (2012,12)
• Refers to people´s action and context
• How and by whom was the educational system constructed?
• What did the infrastructure look like before?
• What legends about education and learning do the people share?
• Are Finnish teacher autonomy, safety, school success, equality, welfare,
functionality true in Finland
• How did they become into existence?
• Are they there also in the future?
24. Theory development
• Constructing a common narrative (Compare with Poikela & Poikela
(2012,12)
• Communicative actions of the teacher training participants in all forms
• The narrative is constantly constructed, made visible and accessible by
expressions in digital and other formats, “ digital postcards” to home and to
peers
• Sharing and interpreting experiences together, enhanced by guides, teacher
trainers
25. Theory development
• Constructing individual narratives ( Compare with Poikela & Poikela
(2012,12)
• Own professional identity formation
• Support from the peer group in Finland
• Initial testing of ideas into the own context by digital tools, making
comparisons with the peers and planning the final implementation of newly
learned teaching methods in home country of origin and home institution
26. New competence needs for teacher
trainers (compare with Poikela & Poikela 2012)
• Connected to entrepreneurship
• Organizing several services
• Entrepreneurial skills
• Leadership
• Innovativeness
• Cultural and social competences
• Connected to learning
• Ability to exploit existing
knowledge in the community
• Ability to recognize tacit
knowledge
• Teaching and learning on-the-job
