Abstract

Establishing three-year vocational teacher training in 1999 introduced the concept of totality and correlation as one of four basic principles. The term expresses a close link between the different academic areas of the study. When evaluating vocational teacher study in 2003 the Nordic Institute for Studies in Innovation, Research and Education (NIFU) summed up that students experienced the integration of didactics in vocational theory subjects and vocational theory in teaching practice as deficient. Totality and correlation proved to be difficult to achieve in practice.

Methods used in this study are electronic survey and student logs.

This article gives an example of how NTNU and HiST through bachelor thesis has combined vocational theory (breadth and depth) with professional discipline (education and vocational education) and practice for students in the program Restaurant and Food Processing (RM). The main objective of the structure of the bachelor thesis is to ensure totality and correlation and give students the opportunity to plan, implement and evaluate teaching.
