Guidance …The HEAR is designed as a record of student achievement which also meets the purposes of the Diploma Supplement. It will serve two functions through the consistent use of a single consistent process: as a formal, exit document, made available at the point of graduation from undergraduate study, at whatever level that may be. as a formative document which may be available and used from the point of a student’s entry to HE onwards throughout their HE experience

UoB Answer …A Graduate Impact Statement is defined as:A statement of the impact expected of a typical graduate from deploying the knowledge, skills and attributes deliberately developed as the result of completing the designated course of study.
![Page 28: The HEAR – more than just a transcript?](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568158ce550346895dc618a6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Four areas Subject knowledge and understanding – the deployment of the
subject content within contemporary practice, how the typical graduate can use their knowledge and understanding in employment and further study.
Academic and technical skills – the ability to apply the skills such as analysis, synthesis, evaluation, critical thinking, problem solving, ability to convey complex ideas in oral and verbal formats, digital literacy etc. in the context of the subject.
Professional Practice – the ability in areas such as team working, leadership, flexibility, interpersonal skills, cultural awareness, ability to adapt to differing operational contexts, sustainability, global awareness, ethics and professional values.

THE AIMS OF HIGHER EDUCATIONTo begin with aims and objectives - what purposes, what general social ends should be served by higher education? The question is not a new one; and the answers have been many and various. But of one thing we may be reasonably certain: no simple formula, no answer in terms of any single end, will suffice. There is no single aim which, if pursued to the exclusion of all others, would not leave out essential elements. Eclecticism in this sphere is not something to be despised: it is imposed by the circumstances of the case. To do justice to the complexity of things, it is necessary to acknowledge a plurality of aims.
