High Impact Practices (HIPs) are research-based instructional practices that promote active learning and real-world application, empowering students to achieve higher levels of academic and personal growth. The Collaborative Projects and Work-Based Learning HIPs are designed to help students develop teamwork and professional skills by engaging with peers, faculty, and industry professionals. Work-Based Learning involves direct experience in a career-related setting. Florida’s work-based learning statutes define the necessary conditions for meaningful student engagement in real-world tasks.
