Guidelines for practice: Integrating practice-based experiences
Professor Stephen BillettThese guidelines aim to assist people teaching in higher education to make decisions about organising and integrating their students’ experiences in practice settings (ie workplaces) to support their students to develop the capacities for making smooth transitions to their selected occupations upon graduation and be effective in those roles.
The guidelines are derived from a synthesis of the findings from 20 projects across six Australian universities that sought to improve students’ learning experiences through the provision of practice-based experiences. The projects comprised the ALTC National Teaching Fellowship ‘Curriculum and pedagogic bases for effectively integrating practice-based experiences within higher education’.
The guidelines focus on: 1. purposes for organising and integrating experiences; 2. key learning outcomes; 3. key considerations for providing practice-based experiences; 4. different ways of providing practice experiences for students; 5. sets of principles and practice associated with organising those experiences (ie curriculum); and 6. enriching them (ie pedagogic practices).
