Summative co-assessment: A deep learning approach to enhancing employability skills and attributes

---

Service-learning is a pedagogy that combines academic study with service to the community. Voluntary
work placements are integral to service-learning and offer students an ideal opportunity to develop their
employability skills and attributes. In a service-learning course, it was considered good practice to raise
students’ awareness of the development of these skills and attributes. To enable this, the assessment in
the course was adapted accordingly, and thus an innovative, summatively co-assessed oral presentation
was introduced. This study investigates the effects of using this type of assessment, in which students were
required to give an oral presentation of their critical reflections on the employability skills and attributes they had developed during the course. This practitioner research study was a small project using qualitative semistructured interviews and a focus group with students engaged in service-learning. Although this study uses
service-learning pedagogy as its basis, the concept and practice of summative co-assessment is transferable
to other academic courses.

Keywords: deep learning, employability skills and attributes, service-learning pedagogy, summative co-assessment
