​Your Final Portfolio is your chance to demonstrate to me that you are meeting all of the requirements of English 2X1. As per the Syllabus, you must pass the Final Portfolio in order to pass the class. There are several things to talk about here, so I’ll cut to the chase: what needs to be in your Final Portfolio?

Final Portfolio Contents

  • A Reflective Essay of at least two (2) full pages, in MLA format. The prompt for this is provided separately​.

  • O​ne Writing Project of at least four (4) full pages, in MLA format. Remember also that no matter which Writing Project you’re using, you’ll need to include at least two sources. (Note: Works Cited pages are not included in your page count, and “four full pages” means your writing should spill onto your fifth page. 3¾ is not 4.)

  • Quotation, in-text cita​tion, and a Works Cited page, as previously discussed in class. (Note: these should all be included in your Writing Project; they are not separate requirements.) Remember, you must make sure your reader knows what information comes from which source, and that they know where to find that source if they wish to.

  • A previous draft of your chosen Writing Project with my comments. For those of you using Writing Project 3, comments will be forthcoming from me.

  • Whatever additional material is necessary to demonstrate that you are meeting each of the Course Outcomes, as outlined on the Final Rubric.

It’s your responsibility to make sure that the Final Portfolio contains everything I need to see the skills listed on the Rubric. If any of these requirements is not met, your Final Portfolio will not pass, and you will not pass the class.
