Work-integrated learning (WIL) experiences provide opportunities for students to become part of a community of practice. The aim was to determine whether a WIL student caused changes to workplace team dynamics. Using a mixed methods approach data was collected from WIL students and supervisors. Having a student in the team: encouraged a culture where staff and students could share ideas; encouraged staff to be reflective and to raise their own standards; and for some, provided leadership opportunities. Pre-placement preparation is needed so students are aware of positive behaviours and the potential power relationships or tensions they may be exposed to.

工作整合学习（WIL）经验为学生提供了成为实践社区的一部分的机会。目的是确定一名WIL学生是否引起了工作场所团队动态的变化。使用混合方法，从WIL的学生和主管那里收集了数据。在团队中有一个学生：鼓励一种员工和学生可以分享想法的文化；鼓励员工反思并提高自己的标准；并且为某些人提供了领导机会。需要进行预先安置的准备，以便学生意识到积极的行为以及他们可能面临的潜在力量关系或压力。
