Portfolio Module Revisions #1

[SallyMcGrath]

Which module(s) and week(s) does this change affect?
Module(s): Portfolio
Week(s): 1234

What is the work that needs to be done?

We have run Portfolio in each region now at least once. I have been gathering feedback for a while now and I am making first revisions. This is on the understanding that the Portfolio can and should evolve as we re-run it.

I have begun revisions on the portfolio module, addressing the main topics raised by everyone, which are:

• When is graduation and what does it mean
• Where is the backlog
• The day plan isn't flexible enough
• Speakers aren't coming
• More project stuff - put them in the curriculum
• More demo stuff - rhythm of the week
• Make it clear people can use other languages
• Clarify requirements around eg attendance
• Surface more ways to evaluate portfolios and improve them, and share them more easily

I'll be updating this ticket as I go. I'm creating a couple of microsites around https://github.com/CodeYourFuture/CYF-Projects and https://github.com/CodeYourFuture/Module-Portfolio also.

Why is this work important to do?
