Final Project · After Module 7
College Readiness Portfolio
Bring everything together. Seven modules. One document you will actually keep.
By the Time You Submit This Portfolio, You Will Be Able To:
- Compile evidence of your own college readiness from all seven modules into a single document you will actually keep and use.
- Evaluate your own work by selecting your strongest section and explaining what makes it strong.
- Describe your growth across the course using specific before-and-after evidence from your own assignments.
- Communicate what you learned to a future first-gen student in a recorded introduction.
What You Need to Do
The Portfolio Has Two Parts:
Part 1: The Document (7 sections)
For each of the seven modules, include: (1) one key takeaway in your own words, (2) your completed assignment or your best work from that module, and (3) one concrete action you took or plan to take as a result of that module.
Part 2: The Recorded Introduction (3–5 minutes)
Record a short video introducing your portfolio to a future first-gen student. Tell them who you were at the start of this course, what you learned, and what you want them to know before they start college. You can record on your phone. Quality of ideas matters more than production value.
Before You Submit, Check These Off
- Seven sections, one per module, each with a takeaway, an assignment, and an action
- Selected your strongest section and written 2–3 sentences on why it is strong
- Written a before-and-after comparison: how you thought about something at the start vs. now
- Recorded a 3–5 minute video introduction addressed to a future first-gen student
- Exported your portfolio document as a PDF or Google Doc link
