The 10-dot Matrix is a quick and easy way to assess how well employability is embedded in classroom activities or module assessments. The video explains how to use 10 key criteria (4 graduate attribute criteria and 6 employability criteria), to quantitatively or qualitatively measure employability in your module or programme.
Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it
The 10-dot Matrix Scorecard is a generic tool and can be applied to any activity, module or programme.
Some classroom activities and assessments are introduced to a module to boost its employability. Many lecturers enhance the employability of their modules with these activities and assessments, for example, with the introduction of industry-partnered assessment, practical exams using technology or software applications, non-assessed group presentations, role play or classroom problem-solving activities. The 10-dot Matrix is a quick and easy way to evaluate how much employability you are embedding in classroom activities or module assessments. This short video explains how to use the 10 key criteria, 4 graduate attribute criteria and 6 employability criteria, to quantitatively or qualitatively reflect on how well your chosen assessments and employability activities are embedding employability modules or programmes.

This OER guides students through human-in-the-loop software development, demonstrating how AI tools can be effectively supervised, refined, and integrated across the Software Lifecycle. Designed for computing educators and learners, it combines agile practice, teamwork, DISC awareness, testing, and critical reflection on human–AI collaboration.
This OER introduces students to designing and developing AI-powered assistants for agile software development using Flowise (no code). Learners as a team explore Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and agent-based systems, applying AI to real-world agile practices while considering technical design, evaluation, and cost-aware decision-making
Through a thought-and-action mapping strategy known as interactive management, the current research modelled a unique, collaborative "pathway of impact influences" to describe such considerations from the perspectives of TUS higher management and external stakeholders.
As part of this project small workshops in linear algebra where held both nationally and internationally. The main workshop website is https://sites.google.com/view/tusdcu-linearalgebraworkshop/home
A one day workshop to help bring together early stage researchers to learn and discuss topics in Linear algebra.
