Work-Based Learning by David Boud

This book is a radical approach to the notion of higher education. Students undertake study for a degree or diploma primarily in their workplace and their learning opportunities are not contrived for study purposes but arise from normal work. Work-based Learning is the first comprehensive book on this major innovation.
"..a book that adds to the growing debate of how tertiary institutions can survive the onslaught of the market imperative" - Gemma Piercy
