Accomplishments go far beyond what you see on a school transcript. This course is aimed at helping students design digital learning portfolios that will allow them to track successes that embody the full breadth of their interests whether in school or out. Youth will learn what it takes to document projects, reflect on accomplishments and design high-quality digital portfolios that they can confidently show off to employers or college admissions counselors. All Mouse projects are aligned to national standards.
Mouse has designed several courses as recommended learning sequences for groups that want to focus on competency areas that complement one another thematically. Courses accelerate positive youth development outcomes, build practical expertise, and helps educators learn alongside their students. Learn more about our Mouse Courses
