Portfolio due date changed. It is now: Tuesday, 15 December

I've moved your portfolio due date from Saturday, 12 December to Tuesday, 15 December.  Please plan to have turned in your portfolio to me by Noon on the 15th, and I'll start grading them that afternoon.  Of course, if you want to turn your portfolio in early, this is OK, but let me know via email.  As the 15th approaches, I'll include details of how you can turn in your portfolio. 

Essentially, there are two options for formating your portfolio: an e-portfolio or a physical portfolio.  In the e-portfolio, you include an annotated list of hyperlinks to the works you want to include in the evidence section of your portfolio, and you post your cover essay as a blog post and as a .doc attachment in an email to me.  Your cover essay is documented by links to the works to which you refer.  With the physical portfolio, you turn in a file to me on the morning of the 15th.  This file will contain your cover essay and evidence section.  Most students document their essay by using short titles and page numbers of the hardcopy of their work, that is, the work to which they refer in the cover essay and which they then include with the essay in the evidence section of the portfolio. 

If you want me to, please ask that I look at drafts, and feel free to ask questions.  DO NOT PUT THIS PROGJECT OFF UNTIL THE DAY BEFORE IT IS DUE.  If you haven't already, start collecting evidence and drafting sections of your portfolio.  This week, I will require a paragraph level outline of your cover essay to be posted to your blog.
