How Virtual Work-Integrated Learning Can Help Educators Overcome Today’s Instructional Challenges

Today, many higher educational institutions face unprecedented challenges in attracting, retaining, and engaging students.

In today’s ever-changing world, how can higher educational institutions prepare students for an unpredictable future? Student engagement stagnated during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many entry-level positions in popular, fast-growing industries no longer require a bachelor’s degree, which means students are turning to faster, more affordable online courses to prepare for the workforce.

To compete in this landscape, universities and colleges must offer students more opportunities for career-relevant, work-integrated learning experiences — particularly in professional industries such as business, marketing, and communication.

According to the National Academy of Sciences

“Learners may not engage in a task or persist with learning long enough to achieve their goals unless they value the learning activities” (2018, p. 113).

If students find course concepts useful, interesting, or essential to their future careers,
they will be more motivated to pursue academic goals.
