This chapter discussed TVET teacher education in Myanmar on the threshold of the 21st century; a qualitative analysis of the present state of the art. Recent status of Myanmar's TVET system was highlighted and the chapter strongly maintained that qualified and motivated teachers and instructors are key for effective learning and are as well at the heart of TVET quality. The chapter provided a comprehensive problem scenario with regard to TVET teacher training; to mention a few, that there is a low awareness for the relevance of TVET in general and with respect to its potential to develop a country's skilled and semi-skilled workers. In comparison to university degrees, graduating from training courses at vocational institutions is not perceived as a valuable career option. Lastly, this chapter attempts to add to the collection of vocational education and training research by consulting a case in Myanmar – a country which currently possesses only a sparse amount of data in this field.

The Early 21St Century

This paper examines the Indonesian Islamic education tradition from the 19th Century to the early 21st Century. The data in this paper were obtained from written sources as well as several previous studies. The results reveal that the Islamic education tradition begins with religious recitation, which is taught individually (not collectively or in a classical system) in a teacher’s house, langgar, or surau. The relationship pattern between Islamic (pesantren-madrasah) and the regular education system is associated with Indonesia’s Islamic education system development. This pattern occurred in the 19th to the beginning of the 21st Century and is divided into two episodes. During the first two centuries (19th and 20th centuries), the Islamic education system (religious sciences organized by individuals, organizations, or government institutions) was still differentiated (convergence or synthesis) from the ordinary school education system (general sciences). At the beginning of the 21st Century, the relationship between the two education systems has indicated knowledge integration, although it is still minimal. So far, it has been rigidly divided between “religious sciences” on the one hand and “general sciences” on the other, leading to an integrated knowledge discourse. If this pattern is desired, an Islamic boarding school for higher education will be created. In which “general knowledge” is given during the day, and “religious knowledge” (Al-Qur’an and Kitab) is taught in the evening. This tradition has become a model for curriculum synthesis between the religious sciences and the general sciences to form the Islamic higher education institution.

The paper highlights the importance of studying theoretical architectural thought as a cultural phenomenon. The variety of architectural and urban planning theories in the period from the 1st century BC to the early 21st century needs to be reconsidered from the modern perspective using contemporary methodologies and tools. The development of a concept reflecting the evolution of architectural scholarly knowledge and its representation as an integral system are essential steps towards solving major problems faced by the fundamental architectural science and predicting its further development.

Secondary Vocational Education

За последние годы система среднего профессионального образования (далее – СПО) претерпела значительные изменения и модернизации для того, чтобы соответствовать современным реалиям и запросам работодателей. Модернизация системы СПО осуществляется комплексно и направлена на решение ряда актуальных вопросов, от которых напрямую зависит развитие системы подготовки квалифицированных рабочих, служащих и специалистов среднего звена. Разработанные примерные образовательные программы являются базисом для всего дальнейшего обучения в рамках основной образовательной программы среднего профессионального образования; наличие учебников и учебных пособий в свободном доступе и необходимом количестве – обеспечивает необходимой базой для изучения; в то время как уровень занятости выпускников по специальности является одним из показателей качества полученного образования. Значимость данных аспектов сложно преувеличить, а, следовательно, необходима нормативная база, способная регулировать вопросы, связанные с получением СПО обучающимися. В рамках данной статьи будут исследованы нормативно правовые акты, регулирующие обеспеченность учебниками, актуальными учебными программами, а также вопрос занятости выпускников в системе среднего профессионального образования. In recent years, the system of secondary vocational education has undergone significant changes and modernization in order to meet the modern realities and demands of employers. The modernization of secondary vocational education system is carried out in a comprehensive manner and is aimed at solving a number of topical issues on which the development of the system of training of skilled workers, employees and middle-level specialists directly depends. The model educational programs developed are the basis for all further education within the framework of the main educational program of secondary vocational education; the availability of textbooks and textbooks in free access and the necessary quantity – provides the necessary basis for study; while the employment rate of graduates in the specialty is one of the indicators of the quality of education received. The significance of these aspects is difficult to exaggerate, and therefore a regulatory framework is needed that can regulate issues related to the receipt of secondary vocational education by students. Within the framework of this article, regulatory acts will be investigated governing the provision of textbooks, current curricula, as well as the issue of employment of graduates in the secondary vocational education system.
