Engineering theory-practice spaces and implications on curriculum innovation
Posted 28th April, 2008 by Ian Cameron
Engineering Theory-Practice Spaces and Curriculum Innovation
This book provides key material to show how curriculum development is intimately linked to the concepts of the theory-practice space. In fact it can be argued in a similar manner to Barnett and Coate (2005), that:
"A curriculum ... has to be understood as the imaginative design of spaces where creative things can happen as students become engaged."

Integration and assessment of graduate attributes in curriculum

An ALTC-supported scoping project that investigates practice around the implementation of Generic Graduate Attributes in Australian universities.
This study explores practice around the implementation of generic graduate attributes in Australian universities. Generic graduate attributes are the set of core outcomes a university community agrees all its graduates will develop during their studies, and are usually stated in institutional policy. The aim of the project is to investigate current practice in developing generic graduate attributes and to identify factors that influence the effectiveness of policy implementation.
