The vision of the research program at EFPI is to conduct qualitative research practices that are interpretive, creative, theoretically-informed, philosophically-underpinned, reflexive, rigorous and transparent. EFPI researches higher education practices that prepare students for the world of work and future professions. We believe that relationships, uncertainty, critical thinking, time and space are important aspects of researching PBE. We use research as a powerful transformative source to stimulate reflection, mindfulness and emancipation. We engage with students, academics, workplace learning educators and industry partners. Research strategies to explore PBE draw on a qualitative framework using dialogical, observational, participatory and reflexive tools. We use these frameworks to reveal current practices, question taken-for-granted practices and explore other possibilities. Our research focus is on traversing learning spaces and our research interests are: ·
Student and educators experiences ·
Professional identity formation ·
Emerging professions ·
PBE pedagogy ·
Assessment ·
Innovative practices EFPI’s research activities are guided by national higher education research agendas, national and state reports (Bradley report, Garling report), national funding bodies’ agenda (ALTC/DEWWR, ARC, NHMRC, Government), national and international WPL bodies (ACEN, WACE), as well as local agendas such as CSU research centres’ themes that align with P&PBE, CSU strategic plans, CSU Degree Initiative, and last, but not least, existing EFPI projects and consultancies. |
