Portfolio

You will create an Openlab portfolio to catalog your work over the course of the semester. This is a good way to track your own progress and reflect on the work we are doing in class. Your portfolio should reflect your work, your learning, and your growth over the semester. When we meet to determine your grade at the end of the semester, we will use your learning portfolio as one of the methods to judge how much your have learned over the course of the semester.

The Details

For this project you will make an Openlab portfolio and create a page for every project we do in class. You should also create a page for you to write your self-assessment for the semester.
