- Introduction Is it really necessary to have WIL on myTUTor? myTUTor is TUT’s Bb environment Now that we are starting to use this tool (Department of Chemical and Metallurgical Engineering), is this tool really necessary From what I could learn it is that: Still old school (paper driven) Everybody does his own thing Little standardisation (using the same templates) So rightfully one can ask if WIL is just willy-nilly or willing
- Content Talk through each point quickly
- Introduction and Purpose Essential tool for self-directed learning experiences directly at the workplace Research has shown that the use of technology can enhance interaction This will ensure active learning and offer a variety of opportunities for cooperative learning. WIL programmes should employ technology in delivering knowledge and skills at a distance. Technology promises to expand the range of authentic learning experiences exponentially. Technology presents the opportunity to employ powerful cognitive tools that can be used by students in authentic learning. In order for this to occur, however, technology needs to be used in theoretically sound ways Purpose:` To suggest a way to support work-integrated learning electronically for TUT students in the workplace Retrieve material that best-possibly matches with a student’s learning needs Different flavours of WIL for each of the departments at TUT involved with WIL
- WIL template Process: > show the PDF > explain the process WIL guide > also a template that each department can adapt for their purposes Forms > also templates that each department can adapt for their purposes
- Framework Give an overview of the myTUTor site
- Effectiveness of WIL on myTUTor Save time Initially takes time for the staff to set up the site Work smarter No more/very little hard copies of documents Easier to manage material and students Conduct an effective WIL programme by utilising collaboration. Authentic learning environments allow opportunities for much of the time for students to collaborate, and to fully articulate their learning. Beneficial to TUT and everybody involved with WIL Potential to more closely relate the diagnosis of competency needs to actual work tasks, and to embed it into work processes The literature has shown the benefits of WIL for student learning in terms of personal development, professional skills, and improved attitudes and behaviour towards work-readiness. This tool (myTUTor) can lead to greater task performances.
- Conclusion Willy-nilly So, the question is: is this myTUTor site(s) just willy-nilly? A nice to have? Is the myTUTor site a cognitive tool? Willing to change This tool is willing to change the way staff and students approach and utilise WIL at TUT: Research corroborates that this technology can support authentic learning: For the provision of multimedia information. Asynchronous and synchronous communication and social networking tools for the support of teamwork, including collaboration, resource sharing, and knowledge construction. Virtual environments, and feedback mechanisms that capture information about student performance and help students transfer their learning to new situations.
