SKKU opened Challenge Square,
a system for student success portfolio,
to systematically manage students’ learning outcome
- To systematically manage the learning outcomes of students’ extracurricular activities
throughout their entire university years
- To design effective university life and career roadmaps by checking students’ abilities at a glance
Our university (SKKU) opened Challenge Square, a system for student success portfolio, in order to systematically manage the learning outcomes of students’ extracurricular activities on September 1st (Tue).
Challenge Square is a total system that integrates and manages learning outcomes both inside and outside of school throughout students’ entire university years. It systematically manages various activities, including club activities, volunteer activities, scholarship, international exchange, mentoring, contests and seminars.
Our university plans to support students' successful university life and help them enter into society, by analyzing students’ success factors based on big data through Challenge Square.
Students can use the system to systematically manage their learning outcomes, as well as look back on their own abilities by comparing and analyzing them with other students. Students can systematically prepare their careers by checking the status of extracurricular activities compared with other students in the same department and the same grade. Students also can compare the status of extracurricular activities or their grade point average with other students employed in a job category where they wish.
In this way, students can effectively design their university life because they can see their strengths and weaknesses through the system. Furthermore, students can build a career roadmap that is right for them, based on comprehensive and data based career information.
Kim Dong Uk, the head of Academic Affairs Division, said, “So far, students' data have tended to be managed focusing on their grades and other curriculum activities. Challenge Square will be the foundation for students to design their university life more effectively and enter into society, by establishing a database about not only curriculum activities but also students’ extracurricular activities and entire university years.”
