ABSTRACT

This study aims to explore how student engagement evolves during vocational education and training. A qualitative longitudinal study was carried out; 12 students were interviewed once a year during their three-year education. A qualitative content analysis was performed and three different student engagement profiles were identified. The findings highlight that student engagement is supported by interest and enthusiasm for the curriculum, strong connectedness to other students, and suitable ways to learn and study. However, one of the key findings of this study is that not all adolescents have a strong passion for their field of study. Many reported that there was nothing else interesting to study and that they were hoping for their field to become more interesting. In addition, the results indicate that connectedness and students’ emotional experience of education powerfully shape their view of their overall educational experience.

摘要

本研究旨在探讨职业教育和培训期间学生参与度的变化情况。进行了定性纵向研究；12 名学生在三年的教育期间每年接受一次访谈。进行了定性内容分析，并确定了三种不同的学生参与情况。调查结果强调，学生参与度受到对课程的兴趣和热情、与其他学生的紧密联系以及合适的学习和学习方式的支持。然而，这项研究的主要发现之一是并非所有青少年都对他们的研究领域充满热情。许多人报告说没有其他有趣的研究，他们希望自己的领域变得更有趣。此外，
