Postsecondary cooperative education in Canada / [Robert J. Ellis]. : SS21-5/1987-6E-PDF
"Cooperative education is a system of cooperation between institutes of learning and the employers of the graduates these institutes produce. In such cooperative education, the student alternates between terms of formal instruction and terms of work experience. Classroom learning and learning-on-the-job are thereby intertwined with the goal of improving both the education of the student and his or her ability to contribute to the work world. This discussion paper, prepared for the Science Council, reports the results of a substantial research project on cooperative education in Canada. Given the paucity of information on the topic, the author, Robert J. Ellis, saw the need for gathering new data. Accordingly, with support from the Science Council and the valuable help of the Canadian Association for Co-operative Education, he carried out surveys of those involved in cooperation education- the universities and colleges, the employers, and the coop students themselves. The following pages describe their perceptions and attitudes"--Foreword, p. 5.
