Individual Assessment: Inclusive Practice Reflection

Learning Outcomes
Adopt an inclusive approach to working in an interdisciplinary team and recognise the responsibilities, benefits, and importance of supporting equality, diversity, and inclusion.

What to do

For this part of the individual assessment, you need to submit a new development experience on mySkills, reflecting on your teamwork during the first day of the week. You should consider what went well, what you would do differently, what you have learned, and how you will apply this learning in the future. No specific word count is required, but if you are looking for some guiance, we would suggest around 250 words (1250 characters) for these sorts of reflections. Help to get started with mySkills and recording a development experience is provided below. You can access mySkills through Careers Connect at:

Once you have completed your development experience on mySkills, you need to save it as a PDF file. This file must then be submitted on Blackboard.

Sheffield Graduate Attributes (SGAs)

When completing your reflection, you should consider how your experience relates to the Sheffield Graduate Attributes. In particular, you may want to consider those skills associated with My Impact. More information on the Sheffield Graduate Attributes can be found at:

My Impact

Why is it important to record reflections on your experience?

Recording your development experiences is an important part of your personal and professional development. It is very beneficial when applying for jobs or promotions. It is of particular importance for engineers, who frequently have to demonstrate their competencies to professional bodies and their approach to continued professional development (CPD). In order for your degree to be accredited, you must demonstrate that you have met the Engineering Council's requirements to "Plan and record self-learning and development as the foundation for lifelong learning/CPD."
