Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community
Papers from the VET Research Conference, held in JulyCRLF2004 at Southern Cross University, are now available. Topics range from learning assessment to literacy to knowledge representation. I list two papers. This first paper, written mostly in point form, surveys the motivations for recognition of prior learning (RPL), surveys the landscape in Australian states, recommends wider use of RPL, and suggests success factors: clarity of definitions, removal of financial disincentives, improved support services, and publicizing known examples of good practice. PDF. Via NVCER, which has a job opening, by the way.
