Skill Hero Assignment
Introduction
In this assignment you’ll practice identifying transferable skills by creating your own Superhero, Skill Hero. Similar to a Superhero, a Skill Hero holds a unique set of skills and strengths they use in a variety of settings, ultimately to perform a mission.
The clip from Spiderman, No Way Home gives us one way to think about transferable skills. Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield Spidermen don’t know how to work together as three different Spidermen because they’ve always been solo superheroes on their own. But the Tom Holland Spiderman likens his collaboration with the Avengers to the task at hand, three different Spidermen coming together. Similar to Tom Holland’s pitch to the other two Spidermen, you’ll need to understand how your various experiences relate to a future career. Both for your own understanding and ability to identify relevant career paths and for future interview settings.
