Content of Portfolio: 1) Evidence of Creative Solution and 2) Reflection Page (together worth 10% of your course grade)

As noted earlier, your Portfolio (containing your evidence and reflection page

Evidence of Creative Solution:

*Explain, in your own words, what your solution actually is, how it works, and what steps you took to create this solution, even if only in ‘mock’ form (approx. 200-300 words)

Refection Page: In approx. 400-500 words, describe the evolution of your project in relation to the course by answering the following questions in whatever order most clearly expresses your thoughts. This page should be written in a thoughtful tone, using the first person (using ‘I’, ‘me’, ‘my’, and ‘mine’ are fine, in other words).

Respond to each of these questions in your Reflection Page (you may simply number and then answer them in turn):

How did your solution arise out of your research? In other words, in what specific ways does your solution respond to knowledge you gained about your particular region through your research?
How do you think your creation can contribute in some meaningful way to the lives of people (your target audience)?

What challenges did you, yourself, face in creating your solution and how did you overcome them?

Name one concept that we studied in the WLDC202 course that relates to your solution in some way and explain the connection you see between them. (For example, culture as a means to solve global problems, Design Thinking, jugaad innovation, migration as a factor that changes culture, consumerism, globalization and economic exploitation, etc.)
