Managing GNVQ Development (Frameworks for Managing Learning)1995

This packet contains resources and guidelines for developing General National Vocational Qualifications (GNVQs) for further education programs in Britain. The materials are designed to be used flexibly to determine strategies or define priorities, aid problem solving in developing systems for GNVQs, audit and review existing systems, and provide training and development activities. The materials focus on the management of learning. They present issues and strategies for the provision, organization, and evaluation of GNVQs, addressing key issues such as guidance, assessment, staffing support, and tutorial systems. The packet is organized in sections containing the following different types of materials: (1) context--introduces and defines GNVQs, provides background information, and gives an overview of the development process; (2) frameworks--provides the development materials organized into five broad topic sections (curriculum, learning, support, assessment, and achievement); and (3) resources, including a glossary of terms and a list containing 67 references and citations for further reading.
