The pioneer batch of 160 full-time degree students graduating from the Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS) next month will have more than degree scrolls and result transcripts to show their prospective employers.
They will have electronic portfolios detailing their learning experiences through the four years at the university. The e-portfolios, kept by the students from day one, include not only their reflections on the courses they have taken, but also the valuable skills they have gained from their co-curricular activities, overseas stints, community service projects, as well as job internships.
