Over the years, you have explored different opportunities through P.L.A.C.E.S — stepping into new environments, overcoming challenges, developing skills, and discovering your interests and aspirations.
Now, as a Sec 4/5 Trailblazer, you have reached an important milestone in your journey. You are one step closer to achieving your goal and aspiration.
This is the stage where you begin to look back on the paths you have travelled and carefully curate the experiences that best reflect who you are, what you value, and who you aspire to become.
Your Showcase e-Portfolio is a collection of the experiences, reflections, achievements, and growth that define your personal journey through BLS.
You can find it in your Showcase e-Portfolio Teams > Assignments.
As you curate your showcase e-Portfolio to prepare for your post-secondary pathways, it is important to plan out how your e-portfolio should look like before you proceed.
i. Revisit your BLS Process e-Portfolio (CCA Teams > Assignments)
ii. Highlight significant activities that shaped your growth - be it through the strengths you discovered or the challenges you overcame.
iii. Check your post-secondary aspiration again, make sure that it is still relevant.
iv. Pen all these down on your e-Portfolio plan (showcase e-Portfolio teams > assignments)
Remember, it is not the quantity but the quality that counts. Rather than including every experience, focus on selecting the most significant moments that showcase your character, passions, competencies, and readiness for the next stage of your post-secondary journey.
