WORK IMMERSION

(Quarter 4, Week 7)

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

Work Immersion Portfolio

Background Information
What is Student Portfolio in Work Immersion?
A student portfolio is a collection of documents that provide a description and overview of the work
immersion experience. The student who undergoes the work immersion prepares a folder where required reports could
be compiled like the accomplished forms, everyday output and narrative reports, and document evidences.

Portfolio Content
a. Accomplished forms
b. Pictures of work site and non-written output/ projects with captions
c. Illustrations of activities performed (as needed)
d. Weekly diary (narrative/ account of learnings and achievements, issues faced and corresponding resolutions)
e. Sample written output (if any)
f. Work immersion highlights
g. Other relevant pictures/ documents

Weekly Diary
A work immersion diary also known as work journal is a structured, re-occurring way to document, reflect,
and improve your decision-making at work.  Unlike other journaling methods, the questions and prompts are geared
towards your work experience vs. personal life.

A diary can be as simple as “writing down what happened today,” although for the process to be helpful in the
long run, it requires a bit more structure. Start by outlining your work goals in an accessible document. You may even
share this document with your immediate supervisor for feedback and in case there are any resources you’ll need to
feel supported in meeting these goals.
Open that document every Monday morning as you plan your work. Each week, create a list of the tasks that
will help you reach the larger goals you’ve outlined in addition to other daily tasks that come up along the way.

Now that you have a structure for what you intend to do, you can get started on tracking what it is that you’re
actually doing. The point in having both of these lists is to help you hold yourself accountable; the more you practice
setting goals and recording your progress, the better you’ll be at predicting your own pace and capacity.

Reasons for choosing your career: 1.
3 reasons needed:
 Link it with your major subject 2.
 It’s relevance to your future
career aspirations 3.
 Your interests and/or aptitudes

1
 Day ____ Date:______________
Detailed account of what happened
This should describe what you did on that day. It should also include some of the following: any training
that you received; interactions with staff and/or customers; things you noticed that struck you as useful or
unusual or poor practice.
Be careful not to repeat yourself from day to day: perhaps take a different slant on something. Don’t be
afraid to expand in your descriptions: it’s meant to be a long document.

Evaluation of the Day

1. Were you able to carry out all of the tasks given to you?

2. Were they easy or difficult? What would have made them easier/what would have helped?

3. How do you think others viewed your performance?

4. Is there evidence to support this (e.g. quotes etc.)?

Overall Evaluation (Friday only)

Would you choose to follow this career? Give at least one reason why/why not. You might consider
the nature of the work, perks of the job, wages, promotion prospects, future work availability in this
area, travel, hours, working conditions etc.

If you said yes, what career path would you need to follow?
If you said no, explain what alternative career path you would follow.
This involves explaining the course, college, points, duration etc. It’s just like the career
investigation.

What did you learn from this work immersion? Ideally you want to think about the skills and
qualities you may have learned or developed and any knowledge you may have gained.

Now, how would you apply this learning to home, school and community. You need to explicitly
link the learning you had on the work immersion and then explain how you’ll use that in the areas
(home, school, community). I recommend a different learning for each one, e.g. “Having
experienced the world of work, the long hours and how tired I felt when I got home, I’m now
more aware of how my parents feel when they get home in the evening and I’ll help out more in
the house.”
