Resumo

As profissões manuais do passado são muitas vezes referidas negativamente como “perdidas”, “moribundas” ou “esquecidas”, levando a pensar que não são importantes no presente e futuro. Estas profissões continuam a ser vitais em algumas indústrias, promovem o bem-estar e a capacitação social, e cumprem os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (Nações Unidas). Propomos uma terminologia alternativa construtiva e positiva para estas competências, incluindo os termos “raras”, “vitais”, “patrimoniais” e “ofícios criadores”. Abordamos questões relacionadas com o ensino destas competências. Incluindo contextos educativos e económicos, expectativas dos alunos e dos professores e questões como a acreditação e certificação. Finalmente, discutimos soluções práticas destas competências para o ensino atual. As opções incluem: a adoção de percursos de aprendizagem integrada no trabalho com cursos de formação mais amplos, visando estudantes a meio de carreira; e garantir oportunidades de ensino mais distribuídas, separando a aquisição de competências em competências básicas do criador e competências específicas da indústria.
