SCO Key Learning Summary and Development plan (AC 3.5 DEP)
Reflect on any learning from your assessment and wider study of the unit and putting
together of your assignment (including attendance at the workshop) and also the progress of
your development plan objectives. You should then allocate the appropriate amount of time
to complete the Key Learning Summary reflection.
You should also identify any learning points for the future and add to your Development
Plan accordingly and also give small updates on any on-going objectives in the right-hand
column, (using a different font colour or other visual indicator that links with your KLS
colour).
You should submit your Key Learning Summary and Development Plan as a separate
document to Moodle with your submitted assessment by the assessment deadline
date.
Throughout the assessment, you should refer to best practice, and include reference to
appropriate literature sources to demonstrate your wider reading. Demonstrating evidence of
wider reading through appropriate referencing will improve your answer and increase the
likelihood of your work achieving a ‘Pass’.
