| Abstract: |
Motivated by the increasing societal impact of technology and the emphasis on ethics within computing education, this paper presents the development and evaluation of a video-based assessment designed to improve students’ understanding of legal, social, ethical, and professional issues while simultaneously developing soft skills such as teamwork, time management, researching information, and communication. Using a mixed-method approach, we explore the impact of this assessment on students’ self-reported skill development across both their understanding of ethical issues and soft skills. Findings indicate that the video-based assessment was well received by students and supported not only the understanding of ethical concepts but also improved collaboration and communication skills. |
