[Asset-H] Methodological toolkit: Identify and integrate communication on Humanities students' unique skills in your course design
This methodological toolkit has been developed as part of the Asset-H project to help teachers articulate humanities skills in their course design. You can help your students gain a better understanding of the skills they acquire in your courses and provide them with the vocabulary to describe these skills. By including information about competencies in your course, you will give your students a head start in the job market, where they will often be asked to describe their skills in job interviews and cover letters. The Asset-H project aims to improve the transition of humanities students into working life. It has three main target groups and beneficiaries: humanities students, their teachers and counsellors, and their future employers. Through careful research and close collaboration, the project provides concrete tools to improve the understanding of humanities skills. Project outputs are: (1) ASSET-H skills profile for the employability of humanities graduates; (2) H-Highlight: workshop on articulating humanities skills in your course design for teachers; (3) H-You: your humanities skills explorer for students and alumni.
