There is nothing generic about graduate attributes: unpacking the scope of context

Anna Jones

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

This paper sets out to examine the situated nature of graduate attributes through using activity systems theory to explore their contextual nature. It builds on earlier work into graduate attributes by examining the reasons behind the significant variation in their interpretation, thus providing an analysis of the contextual nature of teaching and the implications this has for research and policy.
