Details of the task

Identify an employability issue of your interest and concern. The issue you choose should relate to one of the topics addressed in this unit. You then need to use at least 5 peers-reviewed articles/or book chapters from academic journals in English. In addition to these 5 key articles/book chapters, you are also allowed to use other sources (e.g. policies, reliable media etc.) and in your home language.

Key aspects of your employability issue that you must cover in your poster are:

  • Contextualise your employability issue e.g. provide background details and discuss why this issue is important (e.g. what kind of problems this issue has caused relevant stakeholders). In this section, you also need to briefly discuss how some key factors at the macro (e.g., government, society) and meso (e.g., employers, universities, parents) influence employability of your chosen graduates.
  • Briefly discuss the definition(s) and approaches/perspectives/theories of employability, then present the definition of employability in the case of your chosen graduates.
  • Identify and critically discuss how ONE capital supports or constrains employability of your chosen graduates.
  • Conclude your presentation with briefly presenting your critical point of view about how different stakeholders should take responsibilities and collaborate to prepare students’ employability. You also need to reflect how the issue is connected to your own experiences e.g. how you have prepared for your education-to-work transitions, what kind of external/contextual factors that support/constrain the preparations of your education-to-work transitions, what you have/haven’t done well and what should be done more.
  • Identify, define and discuss key concepts that you use in your poster and presentation. These concepts should be mentioned and discussed wherever appropriate through your poster and presentation.
  • For all parts of the assignment, you need to ensure that you are drawing evidence from relevant literature.

This assessment task should be viewed as a ‘building block’ that establishes the foundation for your second assessment task.
