The capstone portfolio is the culmination of your program of study in the MWTC Program. Prior to graduation, you will:
This Capstone course will assist you with the process of composing and presenting your portfolio. You will complete tasks to help you link your work to Program outcomes, draft your portfolio, and review each others' drafts.
MWTC Capstone Portfolio website
You will post your portfolio to space on the MWTC website that will be password protected. I will supply you with access information and passwords.
This semester you will meet at least twice with me in a workshop to review your progress. How often we meet will be determined by your completion of tasks. Workshops are also intended to give you the opportunity to ask questions. How we meet is up to you. We can meet online using the Blackboard chat room, IM, or in-person. We will make arrangements for how and when workshops will be conducted early in the semester.
Important notes:
A grade of C or better must be earned in the Capstone course. Portfolios will not be accepted or evaluated from students earning below a C.
Portfolios must be completed by the deadline. Access to upload files to your site will end at the submission deadline.
Failure to present your portfolio on the date scheduled will result in a grade of E even if you have submitted your portfolio on time.
Students who receive an E in the Capstone course will be required to retake it in a future semester.
Grading:
All of the work required for this course is intended to help prepare you to compose and present your portfolio. Course content should, hopefully, be a review of concepts and ideas that you have learned in your classes. Activities are listed on the Schedule.
