Exemplar Project/Assignment(s)
- Please review your student “Transferable Skills Project Portfolio” folder for important details regarding your Capstone Portfolio and a review of the six transferable skills.
- Select an exemplary project (or assignment) from your Transferable Skills Project Collection that demonstrates your mastery of at least threetransferable
skills during your time as a student at Rasmussen College; or select
your project from this course if you feel that it best represents your
mastery of at least three transferable skills.(Utilize
the Transferable Skills Rubrics to help you assess the suitability of an
assignment for demonstrating proficiency in any of the six transferable
skills).
- Make sure to compile ALL components of your project/assignment(s) (if the project covers several assignments, compile them all in their proper order). Sometimes a project can span throughout several week of a course. For example, if you have 5 assignments as part of a project, you will need to compile ALL 5 assignments into one document/final project in proper order.
- You may also use your “Capstone Project” as an exemplary assignment (as long as it showcases at least 3 transferable skills).
- Compile all of the rubrics that your Instructor used to grade each component of your project or transferable skills assignment. Copy and paste them in proper order to the end of your project. The rubrics should be the last few pages of your project assignment. If done correctly, everything will be one document!
- You want to make sure that you are submitting your best work or the project that BEST represents the transferable skills. Refer to the scores on the assignment rubrics under “transferable skills section of the rubric” that your faculty member provided for you, for each assignment. Also, be cognizant of the level of the course. The goal is for you to show mastery of the skills. For example, if you are taking a 400 level Capstone, then maybe select a project from one of your 300 or 400 level courses.
