Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practice-based learning—the kind of education that comes from experiencing real work in real situations—has always been a prerequisite to qualification in professions such as medicine. However, there is growing interest in how practice-based models of learning can assist the initial preparation for and further development of skills for a wider range of occupations. Rather than being seen as a tool of first-time training, it is now viewed as a potentially important facet of professional development and life-long learning. This book provides perspectives on practice-based learning from a range of disciplines and fields of work. The collection here draws on a wide spectrum of perspectives to illustrate as well as to critically appraise approaches to practice-based learning. The book’s two sections first explore the conceptual foundations of learning through practice, and then provide detailed examples of its implementation. Long-standing practice-based approaches to learning have been used in many professions and trades. Indeed, admission to the trades and major professions (e.g. medicine, law, accountancy) can only be realised after completing extended periods of practice in authentic practice settings. However, the growing contemporary interest in using practice-based learning in more extensive contexts has arisen from concerns about the direct employability of graduates and the increasing focus on occupation-specific courses in both vocations and higher education. It is an especially urgent issue in an era of critical skill shortages, rapidly transforming work requirements and an aging workforce combined with a looming shortage of new workforce entrants. We must better understand how existing models of practice-based learning are enacted in order to identify how they can be applied to different kinds of employment and workplaces. The contributions to this volume explore ways in which learning through practice can be conceptualised, enacted, and appraised through an analysis of the traditions, purposes, and processes that support this learning—including curriculum models and pedagogic practices.

Kysor and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this study was t determine the difference in "career progress" and satisfaction between cooperative education/internship graduates and non-coop/ intern graduates of a small, private, non-engineering college. A secondary purpose was to determine which other independent variables (age; gender; SAT score; GPA; percent of related work) contributed significantly to any existing differences. The principle data gathering technique was a mail questionnaire. Graduates from 1986; 1988; and 1990 were sampled allowing for a cross-sectional overview of workforce participation. A 61% usable response rate was achieved using Dillman's (1978) Total Design Method. In general, study data offered little direct evidence supporting co-op/internship participation, although participants held slight advantage.; in regard to length of time to obtain employment; working within the field of study; merit pay increases; job promotions; salary levels; and responsibility levels. Two outcomes, further analyzed, however, indirectly supported co-op/intern participation. 1. Co-op/intern participants, in comparison to nonparticipants, began college at a significant disadvantage in terms of SAT score (866 to 922). At graduation, GPAs were similar (3.14 to 3.19) and following graduation "career progress" occurred at the same rate. How was the disadvantage overcome? It is logical to assume, as Siedenberg (1990) did for salary, that cooperative education enabled "disadvantaged" students to catch up with their peers and compete on an even basis following graduation. 2. Percent of related experience as an undergraduate is a main predictor of "career progress." Those with a higher percent of related work were more likely to be employed within their field of study and were more satisfied. Associated with this, co-op/intern students reported a significantly higher percent of related experience. In addition to the previous findings, gender provided significant results in regard to salaries and promotions. Males "outperformed" females, apparently continuing an existing pattern of gender discrimination. Integrating all of the study data, it seems plausible that females might overcome this gender "disadvantage" by participating in coop and increasing their percent of related work experience.
