Juniors - Next Year's Portfolio

Juniors-
Having had the opportunity to take this class as juniors, I would like you to think about your senior portfolio. One of the requirements for the senior portfolio is to include a project that shows you are ready for life after Brooklyn Prep. Thinking about the project you undertook (and in some cases finished!) in digital portfolio, what kind of new project do you envision including in your senior portfolio? Please post your response as a comment below.

Seniors-
You have 4 class days before your portfolio presentations. While many of you have written drafts of your letters, have you considered including your project as your life after Brooklyn Prep piece? If are using your project in your portfolio, please post a brief comment about what habit of mind you reflected on through the project. How does the project demonstrate your understanding of that habit of mind.

BE SURE TO COMMENT ON ALL POSTS, these count as part of your 3rd semester grade for participation. Please respond to ALL posts.

I am not planning on using my final project in this class as my life after Brooklyn Prep piece. However, if i was to use it, the habits of mind that are reflected in the piece would: be all of them. I could find each habit in my work outside of the obvious of Imagination & Commitment. The entire piece is built on Perspective and Analysis when you look deeper...and blah blah blah.

i think the project i did for art class about reggae music shows that i'm ready for the real world after brooklyn prep, because this projct i used programs that i never used before and still got the job done

I had portray my digital portfolio in my portfolio but I did not start the video yet. I need to gather my people with my questions and it's like nobody either wants to do it or don't be here. So I might just wind up writing the essay about why I didn't make the video. Or maybe I might could just make a power point about teen pregnancy and how it makes young girls drop out of school and how the boys that deal with the girls that got pregnant and left school.

Having had the opportunity to take this class as juniors, I would like to one of the requirements for the senior portfolio to include a video project that shows how i can change and try to adapt, and have a camera follow me around to see how i make decision.

the piece i chose to present to prove that iam ready for life after brooklyn prep is my portfolio. my portfolio over the past four years has increased with work and ambition. i have worked really hard and my portfolio will be able to demonstrate that.

Though I do not plan to use this project piece to demonstrate that I am ready for my life after Brooklyn Prep I will be useing the several college essays i wrote to show how I've improved in writing since the ninth grade.

I am not using this project in my profolio. if i was going to use it this project . i believe i would use connection. The reason i would use connection is because is it connect to real world and school. my project deal with health and also teenage issues. that why use habit of mind connect to explain my project.
