Stevenson, J., & Clegg, S. (2011). Possible selves: Students orientating themselves towards the future                    through extracurricular activity. British Educational Research Journal, 37(2), 231-246. DOI:              10.1080/01411920903540672

This text explains the looked into range of extra-curricular action embraced by the pupils through the viewpoint of the possible selves’ writing. Extracurricular movement is the sort of site where learners may have the capacity to add to these extra limits towards their future envisioned hobbies. The employers consistently assert their preference for good and generic skills has been found as the result of the research. Employability is all about the acquisition of ‘soft’ skills and capacities. This article includes the contextual analysis which depends on top to bottom meetings with the 61 understudies discovered diverse introductions towards the future, with just some showing future selves receptive to employability. Although this article is subjective, it can provide useful support because the positive interest is mainly discern as voluntary sporting and cultural activities organized by the university through the students associations. Mostly the interest of the students is related to the performance of their academics which can be easy to recognize. But the main drawback of extra-curricular is that it is undefined in academic literature and policy. Another limitation of article is that it effects the orientation of the future and leaves the temporalities under explored. In conclusion, the text describes the importance of extra-curricular activities which might be beneficial for the graduate results of the pupils and can get the opportunity in the field of employment. Moreover, students are identified according the types of the subjects through which they can develop their interest, skills and innovative thinking for the need of their future.

Lau, H. H., Hsu, H. Y., Acosta, S., & Hsu, T. L. (2014). Impact of participation in extra-curricular activities  during college on graduate employability: an empirical study of graduates of Taiwanese business schools. Educational Studies, 40(1), 26-47. DOI: 10.1080/03055698.2013.830244

In this article, the authors illustrate the information about the effects of extra-curricular activities on student career and assessment of employability abilities of students taking part in additional curricular exercises. In addition, authors also focus on the key written genres that students are required to succeed in their career development. This text includes case study which has useful detail which indicates that the pupils who have been participating in pro-social exercises like church and voluntary exercises will probably show scholarly accomplishment and decrease unsafe practices. They presume that extracurricular exercises, for example, expressions or games significantly decrease the probability of understudies dropping out of school. Besides, additional curricular exercises are likewise decidedly identified with scholarly results of optional school students. Correspondence and self-advancement abilities benefit decently from all additional curricular exercises.  Although this article provides interesting information, it is not completely fruitful because in this survey employability depends on graduate self-discernment and not real occupation information. Moreover, it does not consist identity data and the impact of interest in extracurricular exercises on instructive results is little and the causal relationship in the middle of investment and instructive results has not been illustrated. To summarise, the outcomes of this examination motivate the students to look for the opportunity to wind up in the center part in extra-curricular exercises in light of the fact that such interests will bring them future vocation advantageous.
