• Collect, Reflect & Select (e.g. most schools encourage students to select & reflect at least once a year via SLP)
• S6: Use of SLP records to complete JUPAS OEA forms or other institutions’ application requirements.
Will there be a smoother transition, in terms of working from SLP to JUPAS
application?
• JUPAS has designed a file structure to facilitate schools to upload data to their online system
• WebSAMS will be enhanced accordingly to facilitate the process. – Students have accounts to access the WebSAMS plat
form for preparing the JUPAS OEA information based on their SLP
– Such information could be exported from WebSAMS according to the preset file structure of JUPAS
JUPAS OEA Form: Some advice
• Based on own SLP;
• 20 items – NOT A MUST;
• Roles: Try to be realistic (e.g. not all leading roles)
• Additional Information: NOT Testing Language ability; Personal styles
• Student Ownership: No Over-intervening
