Portfolio Instructions

Hello!

It's time to start reflecting on some of your progress during the first semester!  I, or the substitute, passed out a slip of paper with the assignments on your portfolio.  The highlighted items are the ones that need your attention; either they are not attempted or unfinished.  Please take some time to finish these assignments.  

You will receive a grade during the second quarter for the completion of these assessments, and you will receive a score during the third quarter for the quality and content of your work.  

For each reflection that you have due, please provide 5-10 sentences about your work. You should watch your performances first, and then you should reflect.  These reflections should include evaluative comments about your strengths and weaknesses.  Please make this meaningful.

For the table of contents, please include the title of the slide and the slide number that you can find it on.  This should be just as you see in books.

For style and appearance, make sure that you have a theme that brings the whole portfolio together.

Quarter Assessment Instructions

Hello!

This Friday, January 10, we will begin our 2nd Quarter Assessment.  For Debate I, students are to create a persuasive speech.  Before we left for Christmas break, students filled out preparation outlines.  Now, we are making these more formal by typing out the information, adding at least 3 in text citations, and a reference page with 3 sources.

Please fill out the surveys during class to receive points for your work while in the lab.  If you do not fill out the surveys, you will receive a 0 for your workday.
