learning portfolio
The Senior Project Learning Portfolio documents the student's personal journey, processes, and personal insights, as a Quality Producer (GLO #4). The portfolio will contain Department of Education liability forms, project verification forms, the research paper, learning logs, final reflection essays, and other miscellaneous items submitted by the student for grading purposes.
The Learning Portfolio also provides oral presentation judges with a glimpse into a student's reasoning, problem-solving, and growth as a result of this experience. Therefore, it is necessary for students to keep their portfolios organized, attractive, and professional since students' Learning Portfolios will be available to oral presentation judges and provides judges with their first impression of students before they meet face-to-face.
