This module help me identify how to reinforce that internships should be meaningful learning experiences with clear goals (SMART), consistent feedback, and opportunities for student to explore and expand their learning.  

This information reinforces the importance of service projects for students also 

Service learning is a great way to be a part of the community and learn, in part, through observations in real time of how things work. It is great for students to see professional behavior exhibited by workers.

 
 
 


 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Positive and critical feedback is crucial to growth and learning. I love the idea of an exit interview with the students.

To keep the credibility and authenticity of a WBL program, student supervision is a key factor.

Documentation is an important tool for all parties involved, along with self-assessment and evaluation.

Blending on-the-job experience, collaboration with the employer, and support for both parties is essential to a positive experience for the student and the employer.

Internships and work-based learning benefit the student and employer, allowing a connection to be fostered much earlier in terms of typical employment experiences.

Internships is a great way to build student skills, expose them to real life situations on their career path and potentially provide opportunity for job placement. 

This is a phase I never really thought about before. I believe that this a great addition and provides an easy way to evaluate skills that sometimes may be more difficult to identify in a school setting. 

I believe this is the most critical step in WBL. Supervision of students to ensure they are adhering to employers expectations.
