It is anticipated that students will usually retain the same work place Mentor they had for Work Based Learning 1 thus obviating the need to spend time at the outset of the module finding a Mentor.
Students are expected to choose a more demanding project than what they undertook for Work Based Learning 1. Further, they will be expected to work more independently and to make greater use of sources and references in completing the project than was the case in Work Based Learning 1.
The Project Plan, to be agreed with the workplace Mentor, should be better ‘fleshed out’ than that for Work Based Learning 1 with in particular there being a clear emphasis on the broad areas of learning that the student is intending to apply in the project and the inclusion of an appropriate literature review. The Plan should clearly identify the problem to be explored, identify the learning/theory that the student is going to apply to the problem and how it will be rectified.
Learning Agreement – Students will be required to re familiarise themselves with the Learning Agreement and complete a new agreement because it will include details of their project.
Reflective Log & Report – The log is an update on the student’s progress in respect of the project with it having to be submitted on three separate and appropriately staged occasions.
The Reflective Report submitted with the End of Module Project should reflect upon what the student has learned, discuss any problems encountered during the project, indicate how those problems were resolved and consider whether the theory learnt on the course actually worked in their own occupational or professional context.
Accordingly, the following elements provide the framework:
