💡 Big idea: A final portfolio audit converts honest self-assessment into a complete submission.
- 0-5 minWarm-up: which problem are you least confident about in your portfolio?
- 5-20 minList all Problems 1-8 deliverables and mark each: complete, in progress, or missing
- 20-45 minVerify citations and conclusions on each artifact; fix the two highest-priority gaps
- 45-60 minAddress any missing citations or incomplete conclusions on lower-priority items
- 60-72 minUpdate tracker to reflect true post-fix status
- 72-80 minExit ticket: name your two highest-priority gaps and what you did about each
- • This is your last chance to find and fix anything in your portfolio before final submission.
- • We're auditing the whole year: every problem, every artifact, every citation.
- • The goal is not to fake completion; it's to find what is genuinely done and fix what is genuinely missing.
- • Tomorrow we submit. Today we prepare.
- 1Open your portfolio and list all Problem deliverables for the year.
- 2Mark each item complete, in progress, or missing.
- 3Verify citations and conclusions on each artifact.
- 4Fix the highest-priority gaps you find.
- 5Update your tracker to reflect the true status.
- • Your audit reflects the real status of every portfolio item.
- • You resolved your top-priority gaps.
- • An artifact is complete only when it has data or argument, a conclusion, and citations if applicable.
- • Highest-priority gaps are those attached to the most heavily weighted problems or milestones.
- • Updating the tracker after fixing gaps ensures the final submission reflects real completion.

Today's PLTW tracker
Check things off as you work, then submit. This tells Mr. Mendoza how you're doing so he can help the class. It does not replace turning in your producible on Schoology.
