Learning to be Professional through a Higher Education
This wiki explores the idea of learning to be professional in the context of undergraduate higher education designs that set out to develop professional as well as academic capability. It is one of a series of wikis established by SCEPTrE to explore the theme of learning for a complex world. The SCEPTrE project finished in March 2011 but this wiki and the learning enterprise it supports, is being sustained by the not for profit Lifewide Education Community. If you would like to contribute a chapter to the e-book or donate or link to any other resource, please contact Professor Norman Jackson normanjjackson@btinternet.com. I apologise for the loss of video content. The SCEPTrE YouTube channel was deleted by someone and all the resources have been lost.
