Final Portfolio

At the end of the term, you will submit a Final Portfolio, which should be organized and professional and should include the following in an appropriately-sized binder:

1. A checklist that I will give you—make sure to check things off if you include them.
2. A table of contents including page numbers for all of the contents of your portfolio.
3. A 750 to 1,000-word introduction that characterizes you as an editor and uses the work you have included in the final portfolio as evidence. You must specifically cite documents that support what you claim to be true about yourself as an editor (e.g., attention to detail, effective at identifying comprehensive editing weakness, effective communication with clients). Also, make specific reference to the films shown in class about editing. Include drafts of portfolio introduction.
4. All original graded editing tests with my original marks in red ink.
5. Photocopies of each graded editing tests with your re-edits/corrections in green ink for everything I circled while grading.
6. On a separate piece of paper, create a numbered list of the re-edits/corrections you made (in #5 above) and explain in a few words what was wrong with your original response and why your re-edit/correction is correct.
7. All of the answers you prepared on a separate piece of paper throughout the term for all questions and exercises completed this semester. These may be handwritten or typed. Each paper should identify the date you completed the work, chapter number, question number, page number, and your answers.
8. Your completed Client Project.
