Prepare a list of questions that you want to ask. Talk to other educators who have had work-based learning experiences. Find out how they achieved the most from their experiences. Ask for their advice. As an educator, think about how you might be able to use what you will learn in the classroom.
Educators have the opportunity to see how other work places operate.
This broadens their understanding of what is needed in the workplace. They can use the information they obtain from their work-based learning experiences to develop curriculum that is relevant to today's workplace. They can cite examples of real work situations, so that students can learn in the context of the workplace. They are able to give students better guidance about the career opportunities that exist and are predicted for the future. It helps educators in their professional and personal development.
