Conceptual delimitations regarding pedagogical competenc(i)e(s)
Keywords:
concept, vocation, educationAbstract
When studying pedagogical competence(s) certain
delimitations are necessary between the general concept of
competence, the differentiation between “competence†and
“competency†and the categorization of pedagogical
competence among the richly identified gamut of competences
in various fields. Other authors make a clear cut distinction
between the terms “competenceâ€, “skills†and “vocational
qualification†making subtle differences between the “required
skills, knowledge and responsibility in accordance with a
specific work situationâ€, “the ability of a person to complete
work tasks, including the ability to acquire, develop and extend
knowledge and know-how to complete tasks and solve
problems†and respectively “the evaluation of educational and
professional skills with respect to a particular profession
confirmed by documentary evidence†[1].
