WBS 4810 Continuing Professional Development

Structured Programme Agreement

WBS 4810, Programme Planning

1. Proposed Award Title:

MSc Work Based Learning Studies (Website Design and Programming)

2. Rationale for Proposed Specialised Work / Practice Title

This WBS title award is consistent with my current role as the Worldskills UK Project leader and a lecturer of Developing Websites and creating event-driven computer programs within my organization. Most significantly, it is of a personal interest because it will significantly increase my expertise to the advantage of both my students and my organization.

The coursework and final project will require me to develop essential teaching and learning skills for web design and creating event driven computer programs. I am confident that the project will give me in-depth understanding of Web Design and Programming thinking and will make me more aware of the highly developed concepts of IT.

3. Overview of the Programme Context and Learning Requirements

I currently work as a lecturer in the College of North West London in the Faculty of Computing, Maths, Business and Science (CoMBs), within the faculty I work under the School of Computing and Business.

This course will help me develop the necessary skills to be able to support learners based on their individual needs, develop Combined SOW and Planner for each unit to be prepared and printed for learners as part of their course handbook as hard copies, those course handbook and other material will also be available to students, team members and course leaders as electronic copies on Moodle under the relev...

By writing my learning agreement I can confirm that I have managed to develop better planning and organisational skills that I can implement and use to “support learning through work at higher education level” (Middlesex University, 2012).

I also believe that I have intellectually furthered myself by developing the required knowledge and skills. As mentioned above the learning agreement including constructive feedback from my module leader and work colleagues gave me the chance to document out my past and current learning experiences. Therefore, my final project will be well documented and well written as I have been able to improve my effective and reflective writing knowledge and skills throughout the project.
