Exploring the Authentic Teaching and Learning Experience of the Apprentices of the National Dual Training System

Open access
The study is a concept paper on the authentic teaching and learning (T&L) experience of the National Dual Training System (NDTS) apprentices. The authentic T&L emphasizes on the two learning aspects centred on trainers and apprentices. This is because the success of of authentic T&L can only be experienced with active participation from the trainers and trainees. An apprentice would not just learn the theoretical aspects, but they must know how to apply the practical aspects, and perform the positive social values within the time allocated. The learning atmosphere allows the apprentice to combine the practical and the theories from the formal education and apply it practically. The research explored and explained a few autehntic T&L models that were often debated and applied in past research that could form as the background for future studies.
