“…In this manner, the final‐year students are exposed to two subsequent but distinct and separately graded segments of activity, one preparatory and to the other immersive. The first part centers on group work in the classroom performed as a learning‐for‐work activity in terms of increasing the chances for employability (Frison, Fedeli, & Taylor, ) in order to develop technical skills and above all to develop or reinforce soft skills during the internship (Frison, Tino, Tyner, & Fedeli, ). The second part is a learning‐through‐work activity (Billet & Choy, ; Subramaniam & Freudenberg, ) through an intensive internship hosted at a partner organization, aimed at aiding students to reflect on course content in relationship to problems that emerge in the professional work setting.…”
