Other curricula factors (alignment of learning activities and assessments with integrative learning, and the provision of supportive en…

  • WIL curriculum design and student learning: A Structural Model of Their Effects on Student Satisfaction

    Calvin Smith, Calvin D Smith et al.ARTICLEStudies in Higher Education2014Cited by: 2References: 11

    With the increasing adoption of work-integrated learning (WIL) as a feature of curricula, the idea of student satisfaction takes on a new dimension – students' experiences on placement are not routinely under the control of university academic staff, yet universities will ultimately be held responsible for the quality of students' placement experiences.

  • Design‐focused evaluation

    Calvin Smith, Calvin D SmithARTICLEAssessment & Evaluation in Higher…2008

    In this paper an approach to the writing of evaluation questions is outlined and developed which focuses attention on the question of the effectiveness of an educational design for bringing about the learning it is intended to facilitate.

    This article presents an ethnographic analysis of object and role transformations in the social pretend play of Huli (Papua New Guinea) children. It focuses on how these child actors enact their understandings of the relation between language, gender and identity, and the conversational means by which they monitor authenticity in role reproduction, assignation and appropriation. From an examination of the levels of discontinuity in findings for W…
