摘要：Efforts to ensure that graduates leave university with the skills needed for
career wide lifelong learning have been the focus of much activity at
universities both nationally and internationally for over a decade. In this
paper, we describe three projects aimed at developing student skills as part of
the discipline content in line with current theory and research. Projects
required instructors to reflect on their current practice and, where necessary,
to change learning environments from content to process oriented and from
teacher to student centred, and to align learning outcomes, learning activities
and assessment tasks. We describe each project and, using models of change
management and the findings from investigations of teaching and learning
innovations in Higher Education, identify the design features that supported
or constrained each project¡¯s success. Based on the lessons learned from
these three projects and those of others reported in the literature, we make
recommendations for the design of projects that will have a good chance of
success in creating effective learning environments that support skill
development.
