1 Front Independent Learning Reflection (Inc. CPD Personal Development) The ability to reflect on actions and decisions is a necessary skill in many occupations / professional bodies Independent Learning Reflection (Inc. CPD Personal Development) Students have time to consider their development, and can identify areas of personal challenge Independent Learning Reflection (Inc. CPD Personal Development) Helps students to develop critical-thinking skills Work-related learning Problem-based learning Work-related learning Problem-based learning Work-related learning Role-play Work-related learning Role-play Independent Learning Phased Learning / Mastery Moving onto increasingly complex topics makes learning more visible to students Independent Learning Phased Learning / Mastery Student is encouraged to become more autonomous Independent Learning Phased Learning / Mastery Develops students' confidence in their abilities Work-related learning Role-play Encourage and enable imaginative and innovative thinking Provides students with the opportunity to research and evaluate the relative merits of different approaches Mimic real-world, real-time situations, enabling immediate reflection and feedback Practice complex or high order skills in a safe and supported environment Illustrate and consider ethical/moral/legal questions likely to be encountered in employment Work-related learning Problem-based learning Develops students' confidence in their abilities

3 Front Independent Learning Self Directed Learning Can lead to high levels of active engagement as students pick topics of personal interest Independent Learning Self Directed Learning Independent Learning Self Directed Learning Work-related learning Practical / Project work Fosters independent learning and increases diversity of topics, resulting in greater topic coverage among a cohort Work-related learning Practical / Project work Work-related learning Practical / Project work Encourages students to develop their critical thinking and research skills Work-related learning Simulation Work-related learning Simulation Facilitate and encourage practical skill and equipment proficiencies likely to be encountered in practice Work-related learning Simulation Modelling the ‘real world’ allows better understanding of the relevant concepts Allows 'safe' exploration of challenging or controversial topics and techniques Work-related learning Work-based learning / Placements Students can develop useful relationships and contacts within their industry Work-related learning Work-based learning / Placements Opportunities to explore the relationship between theory and practice Work-related learning Work-based learning / Placements Helps students to develop resources for a portfolio of their work Provides opportunities for students to use theory to develop practical solutions Allows students to develop examples of their work which could be included in a portfolio Students are able to develop and show the depth of their knowledge and creativity
