Potential of the Task-Based Learning for the Sustainable Development of Food Technology

Abstract

In the paper it is discussed what skilled workers need for participation on sustainable development of food technology in countries of Central Asia. For this the skilled workers must be empowered not only to understand the world of work and to “operate” the technical systems but also to question and optimise them continuously. This must be reflected in the didactic set-up of vocational teaching-learning processes. In the article an approach of vocational learning which is focused on real working tasks is described. Potentials of this approach for the development of competencies of the skilled worker as well as methods for the realisation are discussed, particularly the comparative work trial.
