Student perceptions of paid and unpaid work placements: A comparative analysis

Abstract

Work-integrated learning (WIL) is an educational approach that is highly authentic and meaningful, therefore, some of the challenges within can be complex. Student wellbeing has been a focal point within higher education for some years (Konstantinou et al., 2023), albeit the debate around unpaid work placements has only recently been given some scholarly attention (see, e.g., Hoskyn et al., 2023).
