How to: Portfolio Project
The purpose of this project is to provide you with an organized method for reviewing the development of your skills in the standards areas of: Reading, Writing and Listening/Speaking/Viewing (L/S/V). Throughout the semester, you have had frequent opportunities to add to your portfolios (binders) and organize. You have also had an opportunity to add to your digital portfolio at www.turnitin.com .
Turn-It-In organizes your work for you. Your binder doesn't. If you have been keeping your binder organized all semester, it already has three distinct sections – reading, writing and listening/speaking/viewing (L/S/V).
Step 1 - ORGANIZE the Binder
What goes where?
As you know, your online grades tell you which assignments belong in READING and which assignments belong in WRITING and which assignments belong in LISTENING/SPEAKING/VIEWING (L/S/V). Just print up a copy of the the grades for each term/quarter in this semester and you'll be all set.
Does each assignment go in its own sleeve?
You may group related assignments. For example, all reader’s responses for a specific novel may go in one sleeve. All drafts of a paper may go in one sleeve with the most recent final draft on top. What you should not do is simply stuff random assignments together in a sleeve or all reading activities into one sleeve and all writing activities into one sleeve etc. ... . If you choose to group related assignments into a sleeve, all elements in that sleeve should be focused on one specific activity/novel/ paper project. For example, all reader's responses for the novel Tears of a Tiger can be in one sleeve.
What do I do about those assignments that are archived in my digital portfolio at www.turnitin.com ?
If you happen to have a previously printed hard copy of an assignment, you may include it; however, DO NOT PRINT UP HARD COPIES OF ASSIGNMENTS IN YOUR DIGITAL PORTFOLIO just so you can include them in your binder.
I'm missing assignments!!!! What do I do?
Do not panic if you are missing an assignment. Some assignments/grades (such as academic discourse, reading workshop or writing workshop) were not paper assignments but activities for which participation was tracked on my clipboard. Also, the latest revision for a paper may not have been returned to you because it is being scored. Leave a space for this assignment and you will place it in your portfolio later. Remember, the goal of this activity is to organize and review your work to help you prepare for the exam.
Step 2 – REVIEW SKILLS DEVELOPED
Now that you have organized your portfolio, you need to create a one-page introduction for each section of your portfolio. This introduction page will be the first page of each section of your portfolio. It will provide an opportunity for you to review the work you have completed and the skills you have developed in each of the three standards areas this semester. Download a copy of the introduction page for each section and follow the directions.
Step 3 – PORTFOLIO COVER SHEET for the Binder
Make a cover sheet for the portfolio binder. This will demonstrate your kiosk presentation skills. When completed, this cover sheet will be displayed on the cover of your binder. Download a copy of the cover sheet for the correct semester and follow the directions. All elements for the cover sheet must fit onto one page and be clearly legible.
