Today you check what is actually in your Communication Portfolio. A Key Assignment is banked if its finished piece is there, and flagged if it is missing or unfinished. Both are honest answers.
You file one piece today, your Module 1 Reflection. It goes in your Communication Portfolio, and its Module 2 bridge line also goes in your Reflective Journal.
A Module 1 reflection is not a diary of every lesson. It is four moves: check the five Key Assignments, name three confidence gains with evidence, set one practice goal, and leave one honest line for Module 2.
| Term | What it means for you | Real example |
|---|---|---|
| Self-check | Honest review against a list, with evidence named. You open the folder and say banked or flagged for each KA. | KA3 banked: m1_l18_dialogue_ka3_AO, dialogue plus contribution note, in the folder |
| Portfolio review | Checking what is actually filed. You name the real piece, not the plan you had for it. | Opened folder: KA2 three covers are there; KA4 proof markup missing, so flagged |
| Carry forward | One habit you take into the next module. Pick something useful for digital work, not a vague wish. | Draft, mark, redraft before you trust a first version |
| Module bridge | A short pointer into what comes next. One journal line that future-you can act on. | In Module 2 I will check who a website is built for the way I checked what a character wants |
Exemplar (short and complete): KA1–KA5 all banked. More confident: writing for a real reader (audience switch email), spotting what a character wants (motivation map), saying an opinion with a reason (spoken opinion on the anchor text). Want more practice: cutting filler words when I speak. Module 2 line: I want to check a website the way I now check a character.
Coming in Module 2: the digital texts you meet every day, with units on your digital identity, staying safe online and being a digital citizen. Your Reflective Journal and Communication Portfolio carry straight on into it.
Open your Communication Portfolio. This audit is your notes for the reflection you write next: it is not filed.
Leave the other lines blank. The ratings on screen are not saved, so when you finish, press Copy for my portfolio and paste them into Enter Your Work.
This is the one piece you file today. Write it from your audit, and when it is done:
