Active learning through work-integrated learning frames exploring student and academic experiences

Applying a work-integrated learning frame, the chapter explores how this learning and teaching approach can be harnessed in ways that promote active learning in university higher education (HE) contexts. Arising from student, industry, and academic participant involvement in WIL experiences at an Australian public university business school, the chapter problematises the role academics and industry (supervisor, mentor, coach) play in aiding active learning through work-integrated learning frames. Following the presentation and discussion of survey data, the chapter concludes by offering WIL case studies and suggestions for academic and industry actors seeking to enable active learning and impactful work-integrated learning experiences.
