1. Create a mini-portfolio focused on your interdisciplinary research & inquiry capacities. Choose 2-4 artifacts from your work archive that provide evidence of these capacities. If you like, you can choose one artifact in which your abilities were less developed, and another in which they were better developed, to make a comparison. If you wish to add more artifacts to your Google site for this purpose, go ahead.

2. Write a 300-500 word framing essay that introduces the reader to the artifacts and explains their significance (and your choices). You should be as specific as possible in explaining to readers how the artifacts you selected evince yourinterdisciplinary research abilities. Remember that readers will not be familiar with your work, so you need to describe it (rather than simply gesturing toward it). To this end, some of the writing from your annotated bibliography may be useful; feel free to reuse it here.
