Learning outcomes:

Submission Method: Turnitin - Your work will be put through Turnitin. All
submissions will be electronically checked for plagiarism and the use of AI software.
You have the option to upload your work ahead of the deadline, more than once. ULBS
will be reviewing your last submission only. You can only upload one file. For example
if your work contains a word document and power point slides/Excel spreadsheet you
will need to copy your slides/spreadsheet into the word document.
Note: Keep in mind that self-plagiarism (when you reuse your own specific wording
and ideas from work that you have previously submitted without referencing yourself)
is also a form of plagiarism and is not allowed.
ASSIGNMENT DETAILS
In order to complete the assignment, you will need to begin by seeking feedback about
your strengths and weaknesses from reliable sources. You should ask between 4-6
individuals who know you know you personally or professionally (can include fellow
students, for example), to provide feedback on areas where they feel you already have
developed skills and areas where you could improve. Use the Employability Pyramid
to think about which skills to consider. Once you have received the feedback, take that
into account when thinking about which three skills (development priorities) you want
to focus on and develop over the coming academic year.
In the following sections of the PDP, you will need to think about what goals you hope
to achieve by working on these three priorities, what internal and external barriers may
be holding you back and how to address them, and what actions to take to begin to
improve. It is very important with the actions to think of actions that are Specific,
Measurable, Accountable, Realistic, and Time-Conscious (SMART) The more specific
your actions are, the more focused you will be on accomplishing them within a specific
timeframe, which will enable you to make realistic progress. The final step of the PDP
is to come up with two questions that you can ask someone you know to ask you on a
weekly or monthly basis in order to remind you of your goals and help you to stay on
track. You can sign up for a coaching session with one of the Leadership coaches in
your first term, which will help you with assessing your goals and completing your PDP.
(Please note that the Leadership coaches are specific to the Leadership Mindset
Module and are NOT the same as the academic coaches or the Employability careers
consultants. This is a unique coaching opportunity specifically to help you with your
leadership skills development and PDP.) You must submit your PDP by the end of term
in order to pass the module.
Following the first term, you will have the option of meeting with your leadership coach
two more times, once each term, to track your progress and support you in your
development with your PDP.
