The Experience Portfolio is a student-curated collection of materials, including artifacts from each course in the Written, Oral, and Multimodal Communication sequence, as described above; one or more reflective documents that provide space for synthesis of learning and self-assessment; and additional documents related to the Explore Program and/or students’ own preferences (e.g. to create a public professional portfolio).
The Portfolio is used for (1) intentional academic advising by pre-major and academic advisors; (2) programmatic assessment of the writing and communication courses; and (3) student-defined purposes (i.e. in a publicly-viewable and student-owned format).
