BU 512 ePortfolio Extra Credit Assignment Introduction BU512, Introduction to Management Information Systems, is a writing intensive course for Business Transfer students. In my BU512 classes I require two Low Stakes assignments of two pages each, and two High Stakes assignments of three pages each. The High Stakes assignments have been reviewed twice by the instructor before they are given a grade for both content and writing style. At the end of each semester I provide students with an opportunity to earn 5 extra credit points towards his or her final grade by posting one of the two High Stakes assignments to their ePortfolio. Because there is concern that students publicly post items to their academic ePortfolios that do not reflect their best work, I request that they create a folder that is Access Key controlled. Student can change the Access Key once their work is reviewed. The Extra Credit Assignment also includes a reflection by the student of what they learned from doing the assignment. This assignment meets the General Education Objective number 4, “use information management and technology skill for academic research and lifelong learning.” Attachments: 1.
