Bridging the gap — with link courses
Abstract
I expect most of us recall from our school days lessons which we enjoyed and lessons which bored us. I expect, too, that we have attempted to rationalise the reasons for our resulting feelings. Perhaps one such reason was that for some lessons we could see the applicability of our studies to the world outside school, whereas in others we seemed to be studying mainly theory — and that in a bit of a vacuum. This leads me to suggest that one of the first reasons for the success of Link Courses has been the introduction of a more practical element to the curricula of many thousands of schoolchildren.
