A shortage of skilled workers and changing job profiles on the one hand, a shortage of teachers and time on the other, and in between: Teachers who want to effectively support their students in their career and study orientation. Not an easy task!
In the "Teachersline" project, we are developing digital learning nuggets in close cooperation with upper secondary school teachers at the Berufliches Gymnasium to give them the tools they need. Teachers become "fit for the future" through outlooks on future-oriented occupational fields, forecasts on skills in demand (future skills) and the introduction of futures labs (futures literacy) as an action-oriented method for developing their own visions of the future. This enables them to guide their pupils towards a realistic and intrinsically motivated decision for the right training or course of study.
As a sub-project of BOoSTline, Teachersline is based on the official handout "Berufliche Orientierung im Beruflichen Gymnasium" (ZSL, 2019). All partial results of BOoSTline will be published freely accessible on studieren-in-bw.de after the end of the project. In addition to producing its own learning videos, animations and expert contributions, the Teachersline project also uses gamification and virtual teaching/learning scenarios. In its development, the ZML can build on lessons learned from the previous BO Sek II project for general secondary schools.

New module "Shaping futures": Experience and teach future skills
Teachersline is launching its digital learning offer with the first published self-learning module "Shaping futures". Teachers and educational specialists receive innovative ideas for career guidance and can apply new methods directly in their own lessons. The module introduces the method of futures labs, which is used to strengthen futures literacy - the ability to think ahead and actively shape possible futures. Teachers first experience new perspectives on the working world of tomorrow in a virtual laboratory and then learn how to apply the method themselves step by step.
The module is available free of charge to all interested parties and will be continuously expanded until the end of 2026 to include further learning modules on future skills and the working world of the future.
