Completed project · 2009–2012
draufhaber.tv
As part of the ‘draufhaber.tv’ collaborative project, a video portal was developed for young people undergoing career guidance and vocational training, with the aim of demonstrating and collectively reflecting on manual skills and abilities.
The research questions for the project were: (1) What attributes does a virtual community platform need in order to support the process
of professional identity development, as well as the development of engagement and employability? (2) How can the process of developing professional identity, engagement and employability within a virtual community be measured, assessed and improved? (3) How can the virtual community be linked, on the one hand, to formal school and workplace training contexts and, on the other hand, to real-world professional contexts, in order to enable the young people and young adults involved to transition into
mainstream education and a mainstream career? The ITB was responsible for the vocational education design of the community platform, as well as for the empirical evaluation of the platform’s effectiveness in terms of the development of vocational identity, engagement and employability among the participating young people and young adults
