About this Unit
This unit will consider the relationship between learning gained experientially and learning in post-graduate Higher education. Students will critically examine the notion of “learning”, “experience” and “intellectual property” in formal and informal settings as an aspect of lifelong learning. They will use this analysis as the basis for constructing a portfolio that translates their own professional practices into (post-graduate) higher education discourses.
