Together with students is a project that explores the role of students in tertiary education with their Faculty partners. It identifies the importance of creating pathways to employment by collaborating with industry partners in a 3-way integration of faculty staff-student industry. By focusing on assessment, as one key aspect of pedagogical approach in tertiary education, this project aims to explore how students can be given a greater role in developing their identity as a learner through self-assessment, and how this enables them to better place themselves as a vibrant, confident potential employee in their chosen field.
Examples and practices of together with students from a range of disciplines within one College .The focus is on how participation in together with student’s activities influence students’ views of their employment options and confidence to actively promote their skills and understanding across university-industry
This project also is part of a larger programme of research on the beneficial effects of studentfaculty-industry pedagogical partnerships. The purpose of this aspect of the research is to develop a systematic review of contemporary literature and research evidence that focuses on the student-faculty partnership activities. There is a growing body of knowledge in this area, but a systematic review of early possibilities of partnership practices has not yet been done. When there are strong faculty-student partnerships, and there is opportunity to connect students and industry partners, there is a greater student understanding of the links between their University learning and the requirements of their intended workplace occupation (knowledge, competencies, skills, dispositions).
