Theory into practice

About the video

A group of learners from Humberside Engineering Training Association (HETA), in the second year of their course, have completed their work placement. They have seen how their classroom learning applies in the workplace, and are returning to the classroom with renewed enthusiasm.

Look out for ...

...how learners have developed over the year and how Richard, their teacher has designed the project work to support their learning and make the relevant links with the world of work.

Questions for reflection

• Where do you currently make links between the theory you teach in the classroom and its application to the workplace?
• How could you increase this integration?
• What opportunities exist for you to develop project-based solutions to assist the progression and development of your learners?
