Document Summary
The name of the game here is revision. Significant revision is expected based upon the comments you received on your previous drafts. In some cases, it may be productive to choose a new topic. Revised copies of your research essay and one of the other two written assignments, as well as a 750-word reflection essay detailing the revision choices you made. For this class you will produce a portfolio of substantively revised writing; the portfolio will also include a reflective essay detailed below. One of the most important parts of becoming a successful writer is learning to revise. The portfolio project is about this last kind of revision. You will select two of your four text-based assignments (review, proposal, article, and essay), conduct some additional research, and substantially revise and extend these texts for your portfolio. Your portfolio will also include your slidecast, which itself will report on research you are doing as part of your revision process.
