College Readiness Touchstone Success Narrative

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.

Touchstone: Success Narrative

ASSIGNMENT: For this touchstone, you will be writing a success narrative consisting of three components. Specifically, you will write about the following:

Who I Am Now: Create a brief biographical statement describing your academic and professional history, as well as any relevant personal characteristics you’d like to share.
My Goals: Identify three (3) professional and/or academic long-term goals for your future.

How I Will Get There: Based on the professional or academic goals you created, identify at least two (2) short-term steps for each of these goals, and set target dates for each of these short-term steps. Make sure that in your plan to achieve these goals, you account for obstacles that may present themselves along the way.

A. Assignment Guidelines

DIRECTIONS: Refer to the list below throughout the writing process. Do not submit your Touchstone until it meets these guidelines.

1. Who I Am Now

❒ Have you provided a brief biographical statement explaining your educational and career experiences thus far?

❒ Have you shared any personal characteristics (e.g., determination, flexibility) that you feel are relevant to your narrative?

2. My Goals

❒ Have you provided three long-term goals you wish to accomplish?

❒ Have you connected those goals to either your academic or professional aspirations?

3. How I Will Get There

❒ Have you identified and explained at least two short-term steps for achieving each of your three goals?

❒ Have you set target dates for each of these steps?

❒ Have you addressed any obstacles you might face in pursuit of these goals?
