
This is a continuation and completion of the portfolio
created in Engineering Design and Presentation.
However, this one has some questions that must be
answered on the ePortfolio website. This one has a
more structured outline of questions that must be
answered. It also includes many items that you will
be required to do in the senior English class. This is
designed to help you get into the college of your
choice and be prepared for your post-secondary
future.

“Days” explained
3



Day means approximately 1.5 hours, or the 2 class
periods you have the class for. These should be
consecutive so that you are able to complete the work.
This timeline is specific and we need to “stick to it,” as
we have a lot of projects to accomplish this year. So you
need to be diligent in getting your work all done by the
due dates.
I will not be checking your work daily, I will check it
weekly. You MUST be able to self-direct yourself now.
This is what employers and colleges require, if you want
to succeed.
