9. Preparing to build capabilities Building transferable capabilities
A pedagogical framework for developing employability capabilities
Why is it that we are preparing to build capabilities when we are “enthusing” – I’m not sure I understand the grey rings and their link to the coloured rings
Also, we have this in a ring but should this be a linear framework – if so can do it tonight
Students see the learning is:
Relevant to them
Important
Achievable
Students engage in:
Big picture thinking
Foundational concepts
Planning and preparing

11. (Pick a course that needs to be improved)
Activity 2: Reflect on your course
(Pick a course that needs to be improved)
Take an A3 sheet
Think of a course of your own or your team
Read about the 4Es and relate them to the course
Score your likely outcomes and techniques
Share your thoughts with a neighbour
Save your reflection for later 11

12. Questions, comments, break?12

13. Positive deviants
A story
Our research 13

14. Positive deviants – an employability mind-set
Finding 1- Good alignment with the 4Es Finding 2 – A distinct mind-set 14

15. Activity 3: Positive deviants’ ideas to fix the course
Read the scenario
Decide which employability capabilities could be embedded in the course
How will you make this a great course? 15

16. Activity 3: Positive deviants’ ideas to fix the course
Read the scenario
Decide which employability capabilities could be embedded in the course
How will you make this a great course?
How much work is it to make all these changes?
What could go wrong? 16

17. Reflections on the exercise?17

18. Activity 4: Embed employability into your course
List new things you could try that would resonate with your students and bring about the ratings you want
Fill in your future ratings – i.e. estimate the change you’d bring about by using these new techniques 18

19. Activity 4: Embed employability into your course
List new things you could try that would resonate with your students and bring about the ratings you want
Plan to make two of your changes Fill in your future ratings – i.e. estimate the ange you’d bring about 19

20. In pairs, take turns to listen to each other’s plans – 5 mins each?
Activity 4 continued: Talk about your plans for your course and reflect on their feasibility
Active listener – “Yes”,
“Hmm”,
“I see”,
“Tell me more”
In pairs, take turns to listen to each other’s plans – 5 mins each?
Well I’m going to Blah, blah blah
I see these challenges blah, blah 20

21. The dream
… many more positive deviants, and programmes that are powerful and relevant 21

22. Why is this a dream rather than reality?
… many more positive deviants, and programmes that are powerful and relevant
Work in a group, using your flip chart paper to list the forces that act against the dream coming true 22

23. Three not so crazy ideas
Activity 5: Eight crazy minutes
