, Always keep a backup of your portfolio. I have heard all the hard luck stories (some true and some
very innovative inventions) about laptops being stolen from cars, from homes, from schools and
everywhere else you can think of and from crashed computers, viruses, etc. These things happen
and you should KEEP BACKUPS ALL THE TIME.
The following could be reasons why students fail their practical teaching: Non-submission, late
submission or failure of assignments, late submission of portfolios, lack of credible evidence, poor
quality of lesson plans, poor quality of answers, failure to complete all sections of the portfolio
comprehensively (including meaningfui refiections), cheating (with school stamps, signatures,
copying of the work of other students, submitting the work of teachers instead of your own, not
attending ail practical teaching days). JUST BECAUSE YOU SUBMITTED A PORTFOLIO
DOES NOT MEAN you WILL DEFINITELY PASS. YOU WILL ONLY PASS IF
THE PORTFOLIO IS OF GOOD QUALITY, IF YOU COMPLETED ALL
SECTIONS FULLY AND CORRECTLY, IF THE REQUIRED EVIDENCE IS
ATTACHED, IF ALL OBSERVATIONS ARE COMPLETED, IF LESSON PLANS
ARE REALLY GOOD AND IF ALL REQUIRED SIGNATURES AND SCHOOL
STAMPS ARE. IN EVIDENCE.
Please make sure that your porifolio has been successfully submitted via the MyUnisa portal. All
online assignments and ordine portfolios must be submitted as pdf documents. NO WORD
DOCUMENTS WILL BE ACCEPTED.
If you are one of the outstanding exceptional students that adds substantial amounts of colourful,
interesting ane credible evic'ence you must then please reduce the size of your artefacts to keep
within the maximum size of documents that can be submitted online. You can go to ilovepdf.com
to compress your portfolios.
Negative marking will be used when sections cf the portfolio are not completed. For instance, if
we require you to keep a diary and you do not submit it, you will not only lose the 20 marks
allocated to it, you will be given m;nus 20. That goes for ail sections not completed fully and
comprehensively in the ponfohc.
The portfolio must be during the Teaching Practice period and submitted directly
after completing it. In the interest of quality assessment, we have to stagger the submissions
so that they do not ail coine us f0Ü marking at the end of the year. If you do not complete
the portfolio during the Teaching Practice period and do not submit it on the end of your
teaching practice, you will be penaiised in the foliovving way. If it reaches us two weeks late
— minus 10%, three weeks late — minus 20%, four weeks late 30% and so on. YOUR
CAREER AND YOUR FUTURE DEPENDS THE RESULT OF THIS SUBMISSION. IT
IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO SWRE VOUR PORTFOLIO IS IN GOOD ORDER AND
ON TIME.
You might think that these measures are harsh, but we work with huge numbers of portfolios and
expect you to take responsibGity for your vy/Cfk and to make sure you follow the guidelines. It is
