Part 2
The second part of the final project is due on the last day of Unit 9. Your final project in this course requires you to construct a portfolio that documents your successes in achieving key class objectives.
Your portfolio will contain examples of your coursework that portray your progress in attaining three primary course goals:
1.Analytical Skill Building: Improving your critical reading, writing, and thinking skills.
2.Knowledge Acquisition: Mastering knowledge of central concepts, ideas, and perspectives connected to your study of Ethics.
3.Practical Application: Learning how to connect course material to issues you care deeply about and thoughtfully apply course material to your own life goals, decisions, and practices.
Your portfolio can also include information about your work in other areas — for example, the work you did to achieve the personal goals you discussed in the icebreaker assignment.
You portfolio may include:
•Excerpts from your papers
•Examples of your reading notes
•Selected Discussion or Seminar interactions
•Comments from the grade book
•E-mail interactions with the instructor
Your Portfolio Project will also require you to reflect on your progress toward course goals, including your own evaluation of your work habits, reflections on any difficulties that you faced, or any special challenges that you overcame.
The Portfolio Project may be organized as a Microsoft Word document, a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation, or a multimedia document or presentation. Your instructor must approve alternative formats in advance.
No matter how the project is presented (upon instructor approval), it must demonstrate use of Standard American college-level English.
