5. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate What is a capable graduate? to perform capably in the workplace, a graduate is required to apply domain specific knowledge to particular tasks and interact effectively with other colleagues and clients in the workplace they must be aware of the broader social, cultural, economic and political dimensions of their workplace take the new skills and abilities acquired during discipline learning activities and contextualise them so they are recognised in the graduateness of the person participating in the workplace

6. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Rethinking curriculum design We need to rethink our curriculum design so that it facilitates both the development and assessment of discipline skills and capabilities, as well as the assessment of the application of these skills and capabilities in an authentic environment

9. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Learning and assessment employers are expecting graduates to be able to perform appropriately in proactive, task-directed ways where they implement their discipline specific knowledge universities are often concerned with students mastering the conceptual understanding of core discipline principles and applying these to artificially constructed tasks designed for assessments that can be efficiently marked

14. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Multimodal information processing Skills and knowledge required to understand, produce, and negotiate meanings in a culture made up of words, images and sounds. Navigating the infospace Ability to know when and why there is a need for information; how and where to find it in, and retrieve it; and how to decode, evaluate, use, and communicate it in both an efficient and ethical manner. Interpersonal communication Skills required for mindful, knowledgeable, and ethical use of a wide range of communication means, using multiple communication channels Visual literacy Ability to decode, evaluate, use, or create images of various kinds using both conventional and twenty-first century media in ways that advance thinking, reasoning, decision making, communication, and learning Hyperacy People’s ability to deal, either as consumers or as producers, with nonlinear knowledge representations Personal information management literacy Process by which an individual stores his/her information items to retrieve them later Coping with complexity Skills and methods required to perceive phenomena as complex, to study and understand these phenomena (devising multiple alternatives and strategies), and to implement the gained understanding for coping with them. 14 21 st century technology skills (adapted from content by Mioduser, Nachmias & Forkosh-Baruch, 2008)

15. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Learning and assessment if teaching is the static delivery of content, then routine assessment tasks that reward recall will be the likely format for the students’ tasks this approach is not compatible with the assessment of 21 st century skills teachers who prepare authentic learning activities for students will likely make assessment tasks more authentic and are more likely to cater for the complexity that is part of assessing 21 st century skills

16. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Assessing 21 st century skills for declarative knowledge (knowing what) that forms part of the core traditional skills and understandings in a discipline, student responses can be readily compared to expected responses and judged as correct or incorrect the idea that valid and reliable inferences can be made about students’ acquisition of 21 st century skills by judging students’ responses as only correct or incorrect is too simple an approach for the assessment of complex capabilities for these new skills, our assessment designs need to accept multiple solutions to a problem or issue and provide feedback to students on their chosen strategies that have been used to solve the problem

17. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Assessing 21 st century skills designing assessments that are capable of tracking the strategies students employ to complete the assigned task requires a holistic approach to judging the evidence presented by the student students can be asked to construct responses using the competencies that they have developed during a course these competencies will be a mix of discipline specific knowledge and understandings, as well as an array of broader competencies that are more aligned with 21 st century employability skills

18. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Assessing 21 st century skills students receive a strong message about the relative importance of knowledge recall versus the broader competencies such as approaches to problem solving, creativity, collaboration and social context through the weighting that teachers apply to the assessment task students will use these weightings to decide where to place their efforts in completing the task

19. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate FacetCriteriaAssessment component Contextual Does the assessment allow students to take into account characteristics about their workplace? organisational analysis Capability driven Does the assessment specifically measure discipline-specific capabilities and graduate attributes / employability skills? workplace performance review includes list of capabilities Action-based learning Does the assessment encourage students to reflect, review, and modify actions to make improvements in their learning cycle? placement plan and report on achievements Relationship collaboration Does the assessment tool factor in feedback from workplace supervisors? How do all the stakeholders collaborate and relate? site visits where students, workplace supervisor & academic supervisor discuss a placement plan Developmental Is the assessment developmental in nature? Does it specifically provide for formative feedback? formative feedback on learning activities Student- centred Does the assessment recognise the self-directed learning and increased responsibility that the student takes in learning in the workplace? reflective journals & learning papers 19 WIL assessment framework (adapted from content by Richardson, Kaider, Henschke & Jackling, 2009

20. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Work integrated learning universities are exploring alternative learning activities for the resource intensive physical workplace programs such as WIL because of the issues associated with scalability finding suitable placements for large numbers of students in these face-to-face programs can be difficult to organise each year

21. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Work integrated learning virtual worlds or simulations can offer an alternative learning and assessment environment for students to complete workplace tasks as a simulated activity activities in virtual worlds or simulations generally emphasise performance rather than knowledge acquisition this approach to designing student activities is aligned more closely with testing 21 st century skills where authentic assessment involves criteria relevant to the student performance, rather than simply the recall or manipulation of content knowledge in isolation from context

30. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Game-based learning many of the traditional forms of assessment we currently use in universities interrupt the flow of student engagement by separating the learning and assessment as time and location specific activities stealth assessment challenges many of our current concepts about learning and assessment by proposing that teachers design learning and assessment activities that are continuous and not separated by time or space evidence of learning and capability development could be collected continuously without interrupting the flow of students’ learning

31. Rethinking Learning and Teaching for the 21 st Century Graduate Game-based learning embedding assessment tasks within virtual world activities would provide a convenient way to track student performance and their application of many of the 21 st century skills Shute has described the principle of stealth assessment which involves the systematic collection of evidence about users’ actions during online games without interrupting the flow of the game (Shute, Ventura, Bauer & Zapata-Rivera, 2009)
