Quality Support Centre, Brenda; Nixon, Nigel and Butters, Steve (1995). Briefing papers. Developing students' subject area knowledge and skills in the workplace; Quality Support Centre, London.
Abstract
This set of short briefing papers (prepared by members of the Project Team) are intended to complement our Guidelines for Good Practice in Supporting Students in the Workplace, which are the main outcome of a Department for Education and Employment funded project undertaken by the Open University's Quality Support Centre.
The briefing papers embed some of the issues raised in the Guidelines in the relevant literature and cover the following: learning styles and learner strategies; learning agreements; assessment strategies for work-based learning (WBL); learning outcomes and competence-based assessment; professional ethics as a dimension of the development of subject area knowledge and skills in the workplace; organisational forms of WBL.
