Instructional Focus

Instruction emphasizes documentation, reflection, and improvement across assignments.

Figure 79.2 Portfolios capture learning progression..

Portfolios shift assessment away from isolated submissions and toward sustained learning over time.

By reviewing drafts, feedback, and reflections together, instructors can see how students make decisions about when and how to use AI.

This approach highlights judgment, revision quality, and ethical awareness rather than surface-level fluency.

It also encourages students to take ownership of their learning process, not just the final product.
The result is a clearer, more defensible picture of growth in AI-assisted communication skills.
