The paper raises important questions about the relationship between Vocational Education and Training (VET), work-based learning (WBL) and social justice. It adopts an analysis that moves beyond conceptualisations that validate WBL as an acknowledgement of the dignity of labour. It seeks to go beyond analyses that mobilise a conventional…

Significance importance continues to be attributed to inclusion of work-integrated learning (WIL) in Higher Education Institutions' (HEI) curriculum with acknowledgement of the role it plays in enhancing students' learning experiences. However, in Uganda, HEIs implement WIL without stipulated policies to guide its implementation and inclusion.…

In Australasia, paramedicine education has evolved significantly over the last two decades. Anecdotal evidence suggests diversity across and within work-integrated learning (WIL) in entry-to-practice programs; however, the true extent of paramedicine WIL remains unclear. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of WIL practices in…

This study is located in the area of university work-integrated learning (WIL) management, in particular the implementation of both placement and non-placement WIL. The focus of the study is on enhancing WIL coordinators' understanding of WIL as a system, using activity theory as a framework, and to mobilize this understanding to address…

Balancing the contextual and universal reporting of workplace-based work-integrated learning (P-WIL) to capture, examine and explain sector-wide impacts, remains an unresolved challenge within Australian Higher Education. To address this, an action-research project was tasked with developing a prototype data schema that groups the typical elements…

Using categorical narrative analysis, this research examined 200 reflective essays from international…

Purpose: This conceptual study explores whether business competitions (BCs), a prominent yet understudied non-placement work-integrated learning (WIL) model, align with the recently proposed WIL criteria, thereby confirming their validity as scalable pedagogical tools to reduce the persistent competency gap in Master of Business Administration…

Diagnostic radiography (DR) students undertake work integrated learning in a clinical environment as a requirement of their program. Recent investigation of young workers aged 15-24, identified this group as vulnerable to a wide range of work health and safety (WHS) complications and of decreased likelihood to report injuries. This review aimed to…

Work-integrated learning in initial teacher education has gained significant attention in universities, often equated with mandatory classroom professional experience. This systematic literature review examines the conceptualisation of work-integrated learning and its implementation in initial teacher education programs over the past decade,…

Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE) are one of three major components of School-Based Agricultural Education (SBAE), but teachers have recognized many barriers to fully implementing them in their programs. SAE for All was adopted in 2015 and implementation resources were made available in 2017 to address these barriers. This study…

Purpose: This article reports on a study that explored how individual factors, such as students' participatory actions and agentic factors, interact with the workplace contextual factors to create workplace learning environments that facilitate or hinder student learning. Design/methodology/approach: The study followed a qualitative approach. It…

Purpose: This study investigates the significant determinants that lead different work-field employees to develop intentions to enroll in educational programs that use artificial intelligence (AI). Venkatesh's (2000) technology acceptance model 3 (TAM3) is the foundation for the proposed research model in the current study, presenting a complete…

Purpose: This study aims to shed light on how work-integrated learning programs (WILP) affect graduate employability, job satisfaction and students' adaptability to sustainable career transitions in comparison to participants who were not part of WILP. Through a validated model, this study also attempted to map the relationships among…
