Introduction to Planning Process
Learning Journey Project
Your Learning Journey Project is a reflection of your personal educational journey. For this project, the form is as important as the content. You may wish to videotape a performance to showcase your skills, or you might write a reflective essay that captures both your development as a writer by telling the story of how your educational experiences have shaped you as a person. Your Learning Journey Project will be personal, reflective, and unique. Working with a mentor teacher, your project will take shape as you investigate what you've learned, and how it connects to the path you have set for yourself.
