Requisites
Pre-requisite: Students must have successfully completed a minimum 16 units in their program of study.
ADCJ students are exempt from the 16 unit pre-requisite, but must have successfully completed CRI1111 and EMP2030 to undertake this course.
Overview
Learning integrated work allows students to apply theoretical and practical knowledge, and skills and capabilities, to their current professional or industry work place in the desired major area of study. The course enables students to apply their academic knowledge and skills in a practical context that is aligned with their area of study, and to reflect and report on that experience.
Students who are currently working within their major area of study undertake projects in the course of their employment and within the context of the student's area of study. Students will reflect on their own work practices and those of their employer, and will receive feedback from their employer and academics who supervise the assessment of these projects. Students therefore strengthen their discipline-specific learning and specialise within their current employment, and gain a critical understanding of the role of reflection on learning and self-evaluation.
Course learning outcomes
On successful completion of this course students should be able to:
- Apply the concepts and theories of their particular major area of study to a professional or industry workplace environment.
- Critically appraise personal professional skills in order to create an individual portfolio of skills to represent their emergent professional identity and capabilities.
- Identify skill development goals and placement learning objectives; develop strategies to help meet these; reflect on and assess achievement of these goals and objectives.
- Critically reflect on skills that enhance learning from and response to challenges faced and successes achieved in the workplace.
- Utilise relevant professional or industry/practice based approaches to gain knowledge and effectively communicate in the workplace.
- Analyse and critically reflect on how personal discipline-based practice relates to the collective and professional context of the workplace.

Topics covered in this course will depend on the student鈥檚 discipline area and the associated context and environment in which the employment is undertaken. Learning experiences and outcomes will therefore be derived largely from the nature of the employment within the context of the student鈥檚 discipline area. Generally, this course focuses on four parts: i. Student鈥檚 critical reflection on their experience in undertaking workplace activities; ii. Student鈥檚 performance in those workplace activities; iii. Context of the employment experience; and iv. Professional or industry practice of the organisation and its relationship to society. The reflections on a student鈥檚 own work practices and those of their employer is an important part of this course as well, as the feedback that students receive from their employer. |
