- Portfolios are due Fri. Dec. 11 by 9 am outside Krishna’s office, Lab 2 room 3255.
- From the Program Syllabus: “Throughout the program, you will maintain a portfolio of your work consisting of all the above assignments and assessments as well as any notes or other material that reflect your work. The portfolio will be submitted at the end of week 10 and will inform faculty evaluations. It will also provide a lasting record and resource for your own future reference. In addition to the above assignments and assessments, your Portfolio will also include a Self-Evaluation and updated Academic Statement.”
- The Assignments and Assessments Account serves as a good guide for the work expected from you this quarter and so what should be presented in your Portfolio. Use the Account as a portfolio checklist. A completed Account is a required element of your Portfolio.
- Consider carefully whether you should be producing new work just for your portfolio. The portfolio collects artifacts that represents work you should already have completed as part of the regular work of the program. We welcome the inclusion of already completed work that you did not submit on time, or revisions of old work (e.g. quiz revisions), but it is probably best if you only include work that you have already completed or would normally complete as part of your program work.
- You do not need to include Reading Responses in your Portfolio.
- Your portfolio and its various elements should be clearly labeled with your name, neatly organized, and carefully presented. Everything except Notebooks should be organized into a 3 ring binder. Notebooks (Problem Set Notebooks, Lab Notebooks, if you choose to include Reading/Lecture Notebooks) should be submitted as well but don’t need to be in the binder.
- Include a Table of Contents as the first page of your Portfolio. If there is work you know you submitted but you have since lost, please indicate as such in your Table of Contents.
- Include the Assignments and Assessments Account and the Program Activities Log immediately following your Table of Contents. The Account should be fully completed, and the Log completed to the best of your ability.
- Include printed copies of your Self-Evaluation and updated Academic Statement. Also post both documents to the appropriate place at your my.evergreen.edu.
- Include your graded Chemistry Problem Sets including the attached feedback sheet. Organize in chronological order. ChemLite students should include their Workshop Solutions and their Weekly Reflections instead.
- Include your Problem Set notebooks.
- Include all your Lab Notebooks.
- Include your Quizzes. Organize by Calculus quizzes in order, then Chemistry quizzes in order, then Physics quizzes in order.
- Include your Exams, and if applicable Exam Revisions (if you haven’t received them back yet, then you know we still have them; leave a placeholder space).
- Note: we will not search for nor necessarily find the following, unless you clearly note their presence in your Table of Contents and clearly indicate that material in your Portfolio with some clear visual marker (like a post-it note).
- You may include any other material that reflects your engagement and especially your learning (e.g. reading or lecture notes, quiz revisions you completed on your own, etc.). If you include such material, make sure to clearly indicate in your Table of Contents that you have included this supplementary material and clearly indicate that material with a visual marker.
- If you have included required material that you did not submit on time (e.g. a Reading Response, a Lab Notebook entry, a Problem Set, a Quiz, etc.), make sure to clearly note each in your Table of Contents and clearly indicate that material with a visual marker.
- If you did poorly on a MasteringPhysics or WileyPLUS problem set submission but your corresponding work in your Problem Set Notebook is a better indicator of your understanding, again note that both in your Table of Contents and also mark the assignment(s) in your Problem Set Notebook.
