You should have one page on your portfolio that describes the courses that you took to satisfy the Minor in Writing Practices requirements (you don’t have to include descriptions for everything in your portfolio, such as ASEM, WRIT xx22/xx33, or a major class). The course description itself can be copied from the syllabus or catalog when you took the class. However, feel free to revise or rewrite it from scratch based on your experience. Adding the types of assignments you wrote would demonstrate that you did far more than what is featured on the website.
How you format is up to you. Here are two samples to consider.
- Michigan State graduate student Jeana-Dee E. Allen used a table format to show her coursework. Note how she indicated the term and year, and the professor. Her course descriptions include example projects. She writes this in third person, and describes the topics but not always what she did nor her contributions.
- Auburn undergraduate Jamie McClintock doesn’t use a table, but instead, uses headings to show contrast. She links to her additional work in those classes. She also writes from a first-person plural perspective, which rhetorically positions her as part of the class. She doesn’t include the year or term.
You don’t have to follow either one, but I want you to first look at both to get a sense of what these could look like.
