Abstract

Aims of project: To produce a series of talking head videos from a range of stakeholders to compliment and support UoP work on employability in the curriculum.

Background/context to project: The University, in meeting the challenges of TEF, needs to focus on improving student employability outcomes. This has been recognised by the Employability Jigsaw Project. An outcome of this has been to develop an ‘Employability in the Curriculum and Beyond’ website, with resources for academics on how to embed employability into degree programmes. This web resource is an excellent starting point, but would benefit and be strengthened by the presence of stakeholder voices – employers, alumni and students. We wish to model this work on the success of the video talking heads in the ‘Inclusive Teaching, Learning and Assessment’ pages, which have attracted national and international attention.
