Teaching and learning diagnostic assessment tools were developed for both TVE teachers in electrical and electronic engineering and a pilot group of TVE students. The purpose was to examine the existing approaches of teaching and learning practised in TVE educational environments. The analysis indicated that TVE teachers applied limited methods of teaching and learning. However, the TVE students had widely varying learning preferences, as they are more motivated by the experiential learning approach used by the teachers.
