      The portfolio is an assignment where you reflect on the themes of the course through your chosen case. The themes equal the theme weeks of the course, all of which you must address in some way. You may interpret the themes quite freely. For example, although the "water week" has no lecture about drinking water, you can still decide to focus on drinking water in addressing the water theme. Moreover, you can even mainly concentrate on one of the themes as long as you still reflect on all of them to some extent. 

      The format for your portfolio is free: it can be a PowerPoint -presentation, Word document, video, poster, etc. You can be creative and use photographs, diagrams, sound, and so on!

      You can use lecture slides, your own notes, and assignments, as well as discussions in your own group as an inspiration for your portfolio. You can also use external sources, but the idea is to not have to do a lot of extra reading. This is not a summary of the lectures, nor feedback for the course. Instead, concentrate on reflecting on course themes through your case and/or reflect on your case through the themes of the course.

      See also portfolio instructions in 1) the introduction lecture slides and 2) the submission folder of the portfolio case.

      The portfolio will be evaluated on the following criteria:

      • Substance: all the themes of the course have been dealt with in the context of the case and the content reflects the learning outcomes of the course (see Sisu). 
      • Format: the course themes' connection to the case has been elaborated in a way that is innovative, logical, and engaging.
      • Academic manner: both your own reasoning and external sources are presented in a transparent way. The referencing system should be Harvard.
