Conference paper title : The place and status of knowledge in Work Based Learning Abstract : This paper seeks to examine some of the epistemological issues which relate to the debate concerning the justification of Work Based Learning in the HE curriculum. It will take account of post-modern perspectives on the theory of knowledge and of the so-called knowledge revolution and the impact these have had on the University. The perceived divide between academic and vocational knowledge, universal and local knowledge, and Mode 1 and Mode 2 knowledge will be discussed, and it will be argued that such ways of thinking are inappropriate and a hindrance in any attempt to arrive at a satisfactory way of understanding the place and status of knowledge in Work Based Learning.

That’s because we know you need your timetables for your first term to be fixed and ready ahead of the start of term so that you can plan. We’ve listened and learnt a lot from our students and there are elements from the move online that we’ll be keeping because of this. There are some sessions that will be online because our current students have told us that it’s the best way to deliver them. Where we have found new and better ways of doing things that benefit the student experience and reflect the world of work, we’ll be evolving these and A MESSAGE FROM OUR refining them as we move into the future. Where it is practical and beneficial to students, we’ll be PRO-VICE CHANCELLOR recording sessions.
