Where should artifacts go? The front page should capture personality, character and energy about the person! Graduation File- Anything that is part of the Planning Process, Certifications, Resume, References etc. can go in the Graduation file, 4-Year plan etc. Is this Artifact being used to complete an academic goal/ used to meet expectations? If yes, pick one and reflect on why. If no, where else could it go? If something does not fit, then ask yourself “what section could I build on?” According to Dr. Royce Robertson (2007), one example could be if a student is CPR certified, this could go in (Graduation File) where a header like (Certifications) could be added.” New!
