English project and portfolio · Application and transfer

• Without using a reference, define “authentic evidence” in your own words and give one relevant example.
• Rate your confidence from 1 to 4 for each concept: authentic evidence, reflection, curation, revision.
• Choose an access format: text, supported audio, diagram or low-bandwidth version. The academic criteria remain the same in every format.

• Explain how to transfer integrate reading, writing, speaking and professional reflection to an unfamiliar academic, community or professional context using precise language.
• Use this lesson to transfer the method to an unfamiliar situation.
• Apply authentic evidence and reflection to a new situation.
• Justify each decision, test a plausible error and produce evidence that can be reviewed.

Adapt the method from this worked case to new evidence with a different audience or constraint: Select three artefacts for a target role, justify each selection, show before-and-after revisions and identify one remaining development need. State which parts transfer, which do not and how authentic evidence changes the decision.

1. Restate the question and distinguish the required outcome, available evidence and constraints.
2. Select the relevant concepts (authentic evidence, reflection, curation, revision) and explain why other information is secondary.
3. Build the reasoning step by step, make assumptions visible and perform an independent check.
4. Test this common misconception: A portfolio is not a collection of finished files; it must demonstrate decisions, feedback, improvement and ownership. A genuine transfer task changes important conditions and cannot be solved by copying the original response.
5. Conclude by separating what the evidence establishes, what it suggests and what still needs to be verified.

Conclusion : Transfer is successful when the method remains explicit in a different context and its limitations are preserved.

1. Step 1 — highlight the key terms in the task and turn each one into a verifiable action.
2. Step 2 — organise the evidence in an accessible table, outline or diagram.
3. Step 3 — produce a first response focused on how to transfer integrate reading, writing, speaking and professional reflection to an unfamiliar academic, community or professional context.
4. Step 4 — review the response against the criteria with a peer, or complete a self-review if working alone.
5. Step 5 — correct at least one weakness and explain why the revision improves the work.

1. How would the approach to transfer integrate reading, writing, speaking and professional reflection to an unfamiliar academic, community or professional context change if a central assumption were false?
2. What alternative method could produce a different conclusion, and how would you decide between them?
3. Which people or contexts might be poorly represented by the evidence or example?
4. Which parts of the response are evidence, interpretation or judgement?

Stage focus: transfer the method to an unfamiliar situation. Produce the following: independent application of reviewable English portfolio with artefacts, commentary, feedback response and presentation for a new audience, with assumptions, alternatives, accessibility decisions and a test against unfamiliar evidence. The work must show the reasoning, checks and revisions; a final answer on its own is not sufficient.

Livrables

• final work in an accessible format
• draft, outline or decision log
• sources or data with their provenance
• self-assessment against the criteria and one next improvement

Critères de réussite

• concepts applied precisely
• reasoning and assumptions made visible
• relevant and traceable evidence
• an error or limitation genuinely tested
• accessible presentation and explained revision

• Find one authorised resource that supports a concept and another that shows its limitations.
• Record the author or organisation, date, purpose, useful idea and reason for trusting it.
• Write a synthesis in your own words and retain the link to each source.

Révision espacée

• After 24 hours: recall the concepts without notes.
• After 7 days: solve a different mini-case and compare the method.
• After 21 days: explain the concept to another person or record a short explanation.
