The Framework for Work Based Learning at Middlesex University
The work based learning studies approach at Middlesex University (see Middlesex University, Studying with work in mind) focuses on the development and conduct of work based project activity as the means for developing both the individual and the organisation. As the individual is helped to become a more effective work based learner, he or she becomes a more effective employee who helps to develop the organisation through the creation of new knowledge and the application of learning to achieve organisational objectives.
Work based projects are developed and carried out following a four stage process. Each process is supported by work based learning modules at undergraduate or postgraduate level. The processes are as follows:
- The first module involves a forward focused learning review (RAL — Recognition and Accreditation of Learning) to establish what relevant knowledge skills the individual brings to the project. It is assessed by reflective essay and portfolio which, if successful, will lead to a formal accreditation.
- The Programme Planning Module follows RAL. This is learner managed and has to take fully into account stakeholder interests and requirements as well as resources (e.g. of time, information, materials). It is assessed by a three way Learning Agreement (i.e. between the student, the organisation and the University).
- The third module is Work based Research and Development Methodology. It is designed to equip the worker researcher with a critical and reflexive understanding of appropriate approaches to undertake real life projects that are focused on knowledge creation and use. This module is assessed by a project proposal and related supporting evidence.
The final stage of the process involves a Project or projects. Here, the worker researcher’s critical thinking is focused on real work based issues. Projects are assessed by a report or by a product which is negotiable, but which must be accompanied by a substantive report or critical commentary. All final projects are also orally assessed.
