1. Bolognaproces • 1998-2010 • Bologna-proces start met Sorbonne-verklaring (25/05/98) en Bologna-verklaring (19/06/99) • uniek fenomeen: de iure geen bindend internationaal verdrag, maar de facto veel meer dan een gemeenschappelijke politieke beleidsverklaring • proces waarbij regeringen zich op intergouvernementele wijze engageren om hun beleid te coördineren
1. Bolognaproces • tweejaarlijkse ministeriële conferenties: • Bologna (1999) • Praag (2001) • Berlijn (2003) • Bergen (2005) • Londen (2007) Leuven/Louvain-la-Neuve (Benelux) (2009) Gent conferentie : na 2010? www.bologna2009benelux.org
1. Bolognaproces: doelstellingen • onmiddellijk: creatie van een Europese Ruimte van Hoger Onderwijs gebaseerd op de principes van transparantie en kwaliteit • achterliggend: • creatie van een Europa van de kennis: compatibel, vergelijkbaar en mobiel • ‘employability’ verhogen • wereldwijde aantrekkelijkheid/concurrentiekracht verhogen • sociale rechtvaardigheid vergroten en sociale cohesie versterken

2. Bolognaproces: ECTS • ECTS = creditsysteem ontwikkeld door de Europese Commissie om studentenmobiliteit te bevorderen • European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System • “A credit system is a systematic way of describing an educational programme by attaching credits to its components.” ECTS Users’ Guide14.02.2005 • “The definition of credits in higher education systems may be based on different parameters, such as student workload, learning outcomes and contact hours.” ECTS Users’ Guide14.02.2005 • nationale creditsystemen moeten ECTS-compatibel zijn • op niveau van opleiding & opleidingsonderdelen • validatie van informeel & niet-formeel leren
2. Bolognaproces: ECTS • “The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System is a student-centred system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme, objectives preferably specified in terms of the learning outcomes and competences to be acquired.” ECTS Users’ Guide 17.06.07 • Learning outcomes express what a learner is expected to know, understand and be able to do after successful completion of a process of learning. They relate to level descriptors in national, sectoral and European qualifications frameworks.“
2. Bolognaproces: ECTS • “Learning outcomes specify the requirements for award of credit. They are formulated by academic staff. The actual competences acquired by the individual learner may of course go beyond the stated learning outcomes.” • “Competences represent a dynamic combination of attributes, abilities and attitudes. They can be subject specific or generic. Fostering competences is the object of educational programmes; they will be formed in various modules/course units and assessed at different stages.” www.ec.europa.eu/education/programmes/socrates/ects/guide_en.
3. Bolognaproces: Tuning • “a university driven project which aims to offer a concrete approach to implement the Bologna process at the level of higher education institutions and subject areas.” • “The Tuning approach consists of a methodology to (re-)design, develop, implement and evaluate study programmes for each of the Cologna cycle.” • “Tuning serves as a platform for developing reference points at subject area level. These are relevant for making programmes of studies comparable, compatible and transparant.” • “Reference points are expressed in terms of learning outcomes and competences.” Tuning: Universities’ contribution to the Bologna Process, An introduction
3. Bolognaproces: Tuning Tuning model
3. Bolognaproces: Tuning • “distinction between learning outcomes and competences to distinguish the different roles of the most relevant players: academic staff and students/learners.” An introduction, p. 8 • ECTS-definities • “Desired learning outcomes of a process of learning are formulated by the academic staff, preferably involving student representatives in the process, on the basis of input of internal and external stakeholders.” • “Competences are obtained or developed during the process of learning by the student/learner.”
3. Bolognaproces: Tuning • Instrumental competences: • Capacity for analysis and synthesis • Capacity for organisation and planning • Basic general knowledge • Grounding in basis knowledge of the profession • Oral and written communication in your native language • Knowledge of a second language • Elementary computing skills • Information management skills (ability to retrieve and analyze information from different sources) • Problem solving • Decision-making
3. Bolognaproces: Tuning • Interpersonal competences: • Critical and self-critical abilities • Interpersonal skills • Ability to work in an interdisciplinary team • Ability to communicate with experts in other fiels • Appreciation of diversity and multiculturality • Ability to work in an international context • Ethical commitment
3. Bolognaproces: Tuning • Systemic competences: • Capacity for applying knowledge in practice • Research skills • Capacity to learn • Capacity to adapt to new situations • Capacity for generating new ideas (creativity) • Leadership • Understanding of cultures and customs of other countries • Ability to work autonomously • Project design and management • Initiative and entrepeneurial spirit • Concern for quality • Will to succeed
3. Bolognaproces: Tuning “Although Tuning acknowledges to the full the importance of building-up and developing subject specific knowledge and skills as the basis for university degree programmes, it has highlighted the fact that time and attention should also be devoted to the development of generic competences or transferable skills. This last component is becoming more and more relevant for preparing students well for their future role in society in terms of employability and citizenship.” www.rug.nl/let/tuningeu r.wagenaar@rug.nl
4. Bolognaproces: QF of EHEA • Berlijn: “Ministers encourage the member states to elaborate a framework of comparable and compatible qualifications for their higher education systems, which should seek to describe qualifications in terms of workload, level, learning outcomes, competences and profile. They also undertake to elaborate an overarching framework of qualifications for the European Higher Education Area.” • Bergen: “We adopt the overarching framework for qualifications in the EHEA (…). We commit ourselves to elaborating national frameworks for qualifications compatible with the overarching framework for qualifications in the EHEA by 2010, and to having started work on this by 2007.”
4. Bolognaproces: QF of EHEA • Londen: • 2.7 Qualifications frameworks are important instruments in achieving comparability and transparency within the EHEA and facilitating the movement of learners within, as well as between, higher education systems. They should also help HEIs to develop modules and study programmes based on learning outcomes and credits, and improve the recognition of qualifications as well as all forms of prior learning. • 2.8 We note that some initial progress has been made towards the implementation of national qualifications frameworks, but that much more effort is required. We commit ourselves to fully implementing such national qualifications frameworks, certified against the overarching Framework for Qualifications of the EHEA, by 2010. Recognizing that this is a challenging task, we ask the Council of Europe to support the sharing of experience in the elaboration of national qualifications frameworks. We emphasize that qualification frameworks should be designed so as to encourage greater mobility of students and teachers and improve employability. • 2.9 We are satisfied that national qualifications frameworks compatible with the overarching Framework for Qualifications of the EHEA will also be compatible with the proposal from the European Commission on a European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning. • 2.10 We see the overarching Framework for Qualifications of the EHEA, which we agreed in Bergen, as a central element of the promotion of European higher education in a global context.

4. Bolognaproces: QF of EHEA • “Traditionally higher education was relatively explicit about the knowledge (outcomes) to be achieved, or at least the knowledge covered by the curriculum. It was however somewhat less explicit on the skills or competences required for the award a given qualification. Competences, such as those of critical evaluation, were and are embedded or implicit in the assessment values and practices. It is becoming increasingly widespread practice that as wide a range of the outcomes as possible are specified. Such explicit specification facilitates the comparison of qualifications.” (p. 63)
4. Bolognaproces: QF of EHEA • “The word ‘competence’ is used in the descriptors in its broadest sense, allowing for gradation of abilities or skills. It is not used in the narrower sense identified solely on the basis of a ‘yes/no’ assessment.” A Framework for Qualifications in the EHEA, 2005 (p.67) http://www.bologna-bergen2005.no/Docs/00-Main_doc/050218_QF_EHEA.pdf www.vtu.dk

5. Kopenhagen-proces: EQF EQF EP (24.10.2007) : • “leerresultaten” bepalen wat een lerende kent, begrijpt en kan doen na de voltooiing van een leerproces; zij worden gedefinieerd in termen van kennis, vaardigheden en competentie; • “kennis” is het resultaat van de assimilatie van informatie door leren. Kennis is het geheel van feiten, beginselen, theorieën en manieren van werken dat verband houdt met een studie- of werkgebied. In het kader van het Europees kwalificatiekader wordt kennis als theoretische kennis en/of feitenkennis beschreven;
5. Kopenhagen-proces: EQF EQF EP (24.10.2007) : • “vaardigheden” zijn vermogens om kennis toe te passen en knowhow te gebruiken om taken uit te voeren en problemen op te lossen. In het kader van het Europees kwalificatiekader worden vaardigheden als cognitief (logisch, intuïtief en creatief denken) en praktisch (handigheid en de toepassing van methodes, materialen, hulpmiddelen en instrumenten) beschreven • “competentie” is het bewezen vermogen om kennis, vaardigheden en persoonlijke, sociale, interculturele en/of methodologische capaciteiten te gebruiken bij werk of studie en voor professionele en persoonlijke ontwikkeling.

6. EHEA & EQF • 07/05 - Commission Staff Working Document: “Towards a European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning” • Bergen: “We underline the importance of ensuring complementarity between the overarching framework for the EHEA and the proposed broader framework for qualifications for lifelong learning encompassing general education as well as vocational education and training as now being developed within the European Union as well as among participating countries” • Londen: “We are satisfied that national qualifications frameworks compatible with the overarching Framework for Qualifications of the EHEA will also be compatible with the proposal from the European Commission on a European higher education in a global context.”
6. EHEA & EQF • EQF 6: • advancedknowledge of a field of workor study, involving a critical understanding of theories and principles • advanced skills, demonstrating mastery and innovation, required to solve complex and unpredictable problemsin a specialised field ofwork or study • EHEA 1st cycle: • have demonstrated knowledge and understanding in a field of study that builds upon their general secondary education, and is typically at a level, whilst supported by advanced textbooks, includes some aspects that will be informed by knowledge of the forefront of their field of study • can apply knowledge & understanding indicating professional approach to work or vocation, and have competences of devising and sustaining arguments and solving problems;

6. EHEA & EQF • anatomie van descriptioren (kennis, vaardigheden, probleemoplossend vermogen & LL zijn vergelijkbaar • communicatie & ethische dimensie niet in EQF • vaardigheden & competenties gerelateerd aan de complexiteit van contexten, besluitvorming & (team) management zijn nieuw • geen referenties naar formeel onderwijs in EQF • methodologie van de EQF-descriptoren is breder of generieker (sectoraal, niet-formeel & informeel leren)
6. EHEA & EQF • verschillend in reikwijdte (EQF ruimer voor meer niveaus en voor & met meer belanghebbenden) • verschillend in bewoording • beide gebaseerd op leerresultaten • niveaus & cycli (korte cyclus?) • EQF heeft (nog) geen eengemaakt credit- systeem • EQF kan EHEA uitgebreiden tot de volledige reikwijdte van LLL • NIET TEGENGESTELD, MAAR COMPATIBEL
7. Vlaanderen • instellingen van hoger onderwijs: na BaMa en flexibilisering de 3de hervormingsgolf • nationale kwalificatiestructuur inschakelen in EHEA & EQF • inschakelen opleidingen in nationale kwalificatiestructuur • omschrijven opleidingen en opleidingsonderdelen (vakken, oefenzittingen, seminaries, stages,…) in leerresultaten/ competenties • vorming docenten en administratoren in denkwijze van leerresultaten/competenties • leerresultaten in competentietermen • toekomst associaties (academisering) • veel meer in de diepte (& structuur)! • grotere impact op instellingen
8. besluiten competentie • Een competentie is een • observeerbaar (en dus evalueerbaar) • vermogen • door de integratie van kennis, (inzicht), (gedrags)vaardigheid en attitude • om succesvol (en dus probleemoplossend) te functioneren • in een specifieke rol of functie • als maatschappelijk individu • in een contextuele situatie.
8. besluiten (Vlor) competentie • Een competentie is • een geïntegreerde basiscluster van • kennis, vaardigheden en attitudes • die aan een individu de capaciteiten biedt • om effectief te kunnen handelen, • problemen te onderkennen en op te lossen • en verantwoordelijkheid op te nemen • in de context van een bepaalde complexe • taak, beroep, functie, rol, netwerk en organisatie. (Vlor, Competentieontwikkelend onderwijs: een verkenning, Brussel, 2008)
8. besluiten • 6 dimensies : • specificiteit: reikwijdte van generiek tot specifiek • integrativiteit: samenhangend geheel voor handelen • duurzaamheid: tamelijk constante competentie met veranderende inhoud • handelingsgerichtheid: probleemoplossend of functioneringsgericht • leerbaarheid: ook beïnvloed door leercompetenties van de student • onderlinge afhankelijkheid: in relatie tot elkaar (Van Merriënboer, Van der Klink & Hendriks, NOR, 2002)
8. besluiten • Bologna- en Europese processen hebben dynamiek en hervormingen ontwikkeld • Bologna ≠ Kopenhagen & Lissabon (verborgen liberalisering?) • processen (EHEA, EQF, LLL, ERA) niet enkel structurele veranderingen, maar ook inhoudelijke • competentieagenda is op de voorgrond gekomen • curricula uitschrijven in leerresultaten (Tuning) • leerresultaten in competentietermen (ECTS, kwalificatiestructuren) • eindcompetenties verwerken in opleiding(smatrix-EVC) • open, efficient & effectief onderwijs(midden)management (professionalisering) • (eind)competenties & QFs moeten ontwikkeld en aanvaard worden door alle betrokkenen & belanghebbenden • Europese QFs zijn meta, maar geven ook generieke input • belang van maatschappelijke relevantie en (dus) KZ blijft toenemen (internationale geloofwaardigheid & vertrouwen) • strategie & synergie nodig!
8. besluiten • nationaal gedirigeerd • staatsinstellingen • nationaal • inspectie • generatiestudenten • formeel • docentgecentreerd • voorgeschreven programma • niet-accumulatief • leerproces • kennis & vaardigheden • ivoren toren competitieve marktgedreven autonome instellingen internationaal verantwoording (KZ) LLL niet-formeel & informeel studentgecentreerd geïndividualiseerd accumulatief leerresultaten competenties open instellingen
