UTeach Dallas Portfolio
The UTeach Dallas Portfolio
The UTeach Portfolio is an assignment through which UTeach Dallas students demonstrate that they meet specific teaching proficiencies and exhibit mastery in subject matter knowledge. In building a portfolio, students reflect on their experiences and select specific artifacts to support the conclusions reached in the reflection, which articulates important concepts in secondary math, science, and engineering education.
Students are introduced to the Portfolio project in Step 1 and Step 2 (NATS 1141 and NATS 1143 ). You’ll be expected to add documents and ideas to your portfolio folder in your Box drive every semester, building toward the preliminary portfolio as you go through both UTeach Dallas and content courses.
A passing score on the preliminary portfolio is one of the prerequisites for admission to Apprentice Teaching. Preliminary Portfolio pieces are Pass/Fail assignments in UTeach Dallas courses leading up to the Apprentice Teacher semester.
Final portfolio pieces are submitted during the AT semester as assignments in the AT Seminar course.
