Competencies

Read again (originally sent around all students on May 20th 2019)

https://ischoolblogs.sjsu.edu/blogs/icc/?p=2576

Note the key change:

We have amalgamated Comps I and J into Comp J.

• What this means is that you have one less comp to write. However you will still need 10 comps successfully completed to qualify for an RP (report in progress)
• Evidence that you have gathered for  the old Comp I  and the old Comp J will all work with the new COMP J

Other changes are clarification of language in comp statements and rubrics.

Be sure to use the language in the revised comp statements in your e-Portfolios.

See:

e-Portfolio:  Content and Process

Use the rubrics -these are your guidelines to writing a successful statement of competency.

Remember -your e-portfolio advisor will tell you exactly what they want.  But in general they are looking to see that you understand the competency (can explain it); and can also provide evidence as to how you meet the competency.

Evidence Organizer

Organize your evidence using the Student Success Evidence Planner

Please read this section of the handbook very carefully.
