Faculty members hold diverse perspectives on work-integrated learning--a diversity that, we argue, has been underexamined in the literature. This exploratory narrative review discusses the literature on faculty members' support for and engagement in WIL, including a deep dive into the substantial body of research in community service learning…

Assumptions about fostering human capital for national competitiveness underpin higher education policy drivers regarding employability. Departing from this focus on human capital development, research has highlighted the importance of relationality for employability, but there is a gap in scholarship about the role of peer relationships. Drawing…

Statistics for psychology is a challenging aspect of undergraduate psychology courses but poorly understood in experiential terms. Accordingly, we drew on Brookfield's 'four lenses for critical reflection' to acquire insights from first year psychology undergraduate free text survey responses (learner lens), and psychology educator survey free…

While decades of research from cognitive psychology provided insight into effective learning strategies for long-term learning, there is a discrepancy between what research recommends and what students do. We investigated first-year engineering students' knowledge and use of learning strategies, and how they experience and adapt to learning…
