Activity (Mini)

Capturing and sharing student videos that reflect on the challenges, skills and processes involved in being on a work placement and working within a profession. 

In large classes it is difficult to always gauge student learning and engagement. With the emergence of a range of free online tools, academics have the opportunity to get ongoing feedback from students in class.

This learning activity involves posting questions on Blackboard and creating an online polling link for students to contribute to and to see if other class member share the same views and understanding on the topic.

This pattern outlines an approach to work-integrated learning (WIL) within the ‘Applied Industry Practice’ course of the MBA program, which provides the opportunity for students to gain work-relevant skills such as how to conduct quality applied industry research, while developing relevant ‘soft skills’ such as communication and presentation skills, and how to work collaboratively in teams.
