- Principle: Creatively Use & Respond to Change (P12)
- Skill: Portfolio curation & reflective writing
- Task: Organize all projects into a personal WordPress portfolio with a reflective essay : About Me, and a Featured Works page –Highlighting key project or skill.
- Why: This portfolio should contain all of your best work in a curated form. A polished portfolio is the strongest tool for opportunities like internships and employability. You leave with a curated body of work showing range (audio, video, web, animation, mapping) and values-driven design—ready to showcase to employers, grad schools, or clients.
Contents
- Home Page–an intro to your work, good to have some visible media work showcased.

- Featured Work. Unlike an Archive page of a given category , like “<y videos”, this is a designed Page that integrates a few of your best projects around a theme–either a genre or a topic or skill that you want to showcase.
- Menu with class and genre categories.
- Contact Page.
- Compelling design that showcases–rather than competing with–your work.
