Portfolio Logistics

Once your pieces are completed, edited and polished, and totally ready to be turned in:


  1. Create a new document called 1st Semester Portfolio or something like it.
  2. Copy and paste all of your pieces into that one file.
  3. You MUST have your Nabokov essay plus at least two arguments
  4. You MAY have more than that if necessary to prove your understanding/use of ALL of the skills on the 1st semester portfolio checklist
  5. If you have a piece that uses Power Point, convert it to a PDF as you did to submit it to Turnitin.  Then try to copy and paste it from there into your portfolio document.  If that doesn't work, please email me and let me know.  We will come up with a plan B.
  6. To show your revisions based on feedback:  pick one piece that has undergone multiple drafts with significant change.  Put those drafts (properly labeled and in order) in your portfolio document to show the change.  You might also consider a screenshot of feedback that prompted those changes, though this part is not required.  If you don't know how to take a screenshot on your particular type of computer, google it.  It is different depending on what type of system you work on (Mac, Vista, Windows XP).
  7. You do not have to put anything in your portfolio to show the helpful feedback you provided your peers.  I will assess that based on your completion and appropriate participation in the peer reviews this semester.
  8. Once everything is in your portfolio document, add page numbers to the document.
  9. Save.


You are now ready to begin the final exam portion of this portfolio.
