Final Workshop Portfolio | NO Graduate Credit

NON Graduate Credit Final Portfolio Description

As we go through this week, we are asking you to collect maps, primary sources, objects, art, and other resources you would like to use in your teaching after this week.

Make a copy of this document and use it to gather the materials you would like to include in your final portfolio. This collection should include at least six (6) sources including:

  • One or more maps introduced in this course or others you discovered

  • One or more documents

  • One or more objects, art, or other material culture

  • One or more external resources (websites, videos, etc.)

On Friday, we’ll ask you to share with your grade-level group some of the key resources you will take away with you.

Final Project for Graduate Credit

Graduate Credit Final Project Description

Create a primary source portfolio or set to be used to deepen classroom teaching about 17th-century New England, using at least 6 different sources. At least one map and one document presented in the workshop must be used.


Primary source portfolio must include:

  • A detailed list of sources and links to access them digitally (participants can use the Tools for Teachers section of the Leventhal website to create a digital portfolio. Instructions on using this site can be found here.

  • An introduction of at least a page in which participants outline how this set fits into the larger picture of teaching in 17th-century New England. What are the “big ideas” and essential questions you are addressing with these primary sources as part of your teaching of 17th-century New England, especially conflict between Colonists and Native Americans and concepts of geography and identity.

Timeline for Completion of Projects

Participants should identify sources and have a rough lesson outline by the end of the morning discussion on Friday of the workshop. Final projects are due one week after the last day of the workshop.

      • Friday, July 23, 2021 (for first week)

      • Friday, August 6, 2021 (for second week)

Projects will be shared virtually for all participants on the main workshop website and linked to the NEH website.
