- If we read 20 chapters, your Portfolio would have at least 20 slides of content, plus a title slide and an additional Works Cited slide(s).
- Connect your examples from each chapter back to the theme.
- Use at least 3 college level sources beyond the textbook (not Wikipedia). See handout “A Word About Research.”
