Abstract

Due to the accelerating changes in the (national) economy, the labour market and in technology, the renewal of technical vocational training is becoming more and more important. Following the fourth industrial revolution, the Hungarian education government developed and implemented the Vocational Training 4.0 strategy, which defines the system-wide renewal and further development of vocational training and adult education. Innovation poses a huge challenge for teachers working in vocational training. Technical teacher education, including engineering teacher education, also faces these challenges, as new pedagogical methods have emerged in addition to traditional forms of education: cooperative techniques and project-based vocational training. These methods, new to Hungarian vocational education, require an assessment methodology that differs from the previous student assessment practices and features a more differentiated pedagogical toolbox. The study describes the methodology of developmental assessment and its implementation into daily teaching. Based on the results of case studies (n = 96) and of six focus group interviews with former and current teaching students, it draws attention to the need for the widespread introduction of developmental assessment. It presents the forms and techniques that can be used in vocational training through examples.
