Touchstones are projects that illustrate your comprehension of the course material, help you to refine skills, and demonstrate application of knowledge. You can work on a Touchstone anytime, but you can't submit it for grading until you have completed the unit’s Milestone. After you've submitted a Touchstone, it will be graded and counted towards your final course score.
