Synopsis

Students will investigate their role and place as learners transitioning into university study and progressing towards their career goals. They will build an evidentiary-based portfolio demonstrating their engagement and learning within multiple higher education contexts. Learners will become acculturated to the higher education environment through the development of knowledge, skills and strategies that underpin academic success. Through participation in practical, authentic activities relevant to beginning university study, students will investigate and plan for career adaptability and lifelong learning, and undertake tasks related to academic self-management.
