2. Upload your artefacts to LSST OneDrive (RMUnify) and share this with your seminar lecturer and with your tutor.
3. Ensure the artefacts are clearly organised and sequenced within the portfolio
4. Write the 500 word summary and submit this through Turnitin. Portfolio workshops will be provided to help you to complete these tasks.

Word counts:

There is a word count of the summary and you should provide the portfolio in appendix section of the summary.
