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. |
