Description
Learning contracts are agreements between students and staff regarding the type and amount of study to be undertaken and the concomitant assessment or credit to be gained. This approach is gaining popularity in further and higher education, reflecting its effectiveness in managing diverse learning activities and providing valuable experience for students.
This book presents a range of case studies demonstrating best practice in using learning contracts, with a focus on negotiation as a tool for tutors and students, the development of skills and competences, and their application in work-based learning and corporate settings. The authors provide an authoritative analysis of this topical theme, making it a valuable resource for lecturers, department heads, and policy-makers.
