RESEARCH PORTFOLIO Prompt For the final project, you will need to turn in a portfolio containing the following, in this order with the first things on the top. Please put all required elements in a manila folder. □ This Checklist, with all items (hopefully) checked off as you include them in your portfolio. □ A title page (with your name, the title of your portfolio, your instructor’s name, the date, your class and section number, and the name of your school) □ A table of contents □ Reflective essay – this will be a 2-3 page essay reflecting on your experience in English 201. Some questions you can ponder when you are working on this would be: *What were your expectations of 201? How has the actual experience of 201 changed or differed from those expectations? *What growth have you seen in your writing? *What was your favorite/most hated assignment? *How did Ari do? Be honest! You will not be graded down at all for being truthful. *As you are leaving 201, have you learned anything you think you can take with you in the big wide world? *What can be done to improve the course? Any suggestions are welcomed! □ A letter explaining any revisions you’ve done for ANY of the elements in this portfolio; in addition, you will need to HIGHLIGHT any changes you’ve made from the last draft to this final draft on anything you choose to revise (research proposal, annotated bib, research paper) □ Research proposal □ A final, proofread draft of your source-based essay of at least 8-10 pages. □ A separate Works Cited page, which correctly lists at least 8 outside sources used in your essay.
