Portfolio Assessment

You made it, now it is time to show it all off.

UPDATE: TUTORIALS

I will be building a template (coming soon) for you to copy and add to your original Glitch website we began on the very first day of class.

You will then just cut and paste all the wonderful things you have done in your "Do Something" project into the page.

Every portfolio will include:

  • An introduction: covering your so what, why, and how.
  • Your ignite talk: Dr. Mac will record yours in EDU 118 or you can screencast your talk. Upload load it to YouTube as unlisted, Google Drive for private, or Internet archive if openly licensed.
  • Survey Data: Must include some descriptive statistics and a few charts. People like shiny charts
  • Your chosen pathway (see below)
  • Two backstage posts. As you work on yoru project publish three bog post with the hashtag explaining what you did, how you did it, what went wrong, or what went well. Basically you are providing us a sneak peak behind the scenes

  • 60 minutes of content: one 60 min show; two 30 min shoe; 6 ten minute shows, 30 two minute shows, etc.

Assessment

Can you check off everything on the required list and everything in your specialty? You did very well. Can you check off most thing son the required list and everything in your specialty? You did well. Can you check off a few things on the required list and everything in your specialty you chose to not do well.

Did you successfully copy the webbage template an get everything online? This gets you mad bonus points that are worth nothing. Like literally no points, but props. Mad props.

In terms of assigning an actual grade this class and this assignment will be self graded. A survey will come around to you on Dec 8th. We then discuss your self assigned grade if I feel there is a need for a conversation.
