Your ePortfolio will include a self-assessment which will give you the opportunity to discuss your experiences as a student and as a writer.

- your research paper (in PDF)
- your self-assessment should be several paragraphs' long, not a separate file, with each file uploaded and linked as appropriate; you can see examples of successful ePortfolios, linked below
