The strengths and weaknesses of a 'learning while earning' variation of Work-Integrated Learning (WIL)
The background focus of this discussion about work-integrated learning is the three streams of undergraduate Built Environment programs at Central Queensland University that are accredited by their relevant industries. CQU’s students’ truly work-integrated learning experience may be considered to be a ‘self-pacedflexible learning while earning’ process. Relevant background theories of philosophy and the more recent manifestations of WIL are discussed at length in considering the strengths and weaknesses of the formal and informal opportunities for putting theory into practice in this alternative form of work integrated learning.
