Portfolio Project Summary

ENGL 131 Portfolio Template: By outcome (07/08): Outcome #1

Copy the text for Outcome #1 in this section: To demonstrate an awareness of the strategies that writers use in different writing contexts.

Remember that in creating an electronic portfolio, you are essentially creating a web site. Each page should include a header that describes or frames the content on that page. By including the Outcome here, you're telling your reader what this page is all about. Refer to the HTML guide in the online Portfolio Instructions if you would like the header to appear in bold text, and click below to "display content as HTML".



Participant Response (Text Only)

Introduce here the artifact(s) you've chosen to demonstrate your achievement of Outcome #1. Write about and attach ONLY ONE ARTIFACT PER SECTION (you may include multiple drafts of the same assignment in a single section). Add more sections to this page as needed.

For EACH section, explain exactly HOW the attached artifact demonstrates achievement of Outcome #1. Be detailed and highlight or excerpt passages in your paper(s) that demonstrate your learning. For example:
  • Choose two assignments that required you to write for different audiences and/or contexts. Write about your approach to each of these papers regarding word choice, sentence structure, argument & evidence, etc.
  • Was one of your papers especially challenging because it required a kind of writing that was unfamiliar to you? Write about this challenge and how you addressed it.
For help in writing about your artifacts, draw upon the Course Outcomes, your assignments, the assignment handouts, instructor comments on your work, your peers' comments, and your own self-assessments. You will be evaluated on your ability to talk knowledgeably and convincingly about this outcome and your own learning.



Participant Response (Text and Artifact)

Add more sections as needed. Or delete this section if you are not using it. Remember that you are creating a web page, and sections help to visually organize your writing (and artifacts) on the page.
