Mentor Logs

Go to p. 8-3 in your capstone handbook (or view for the capstone handbook online) for an overview of what to include in every mentor log. Post a mentor log to your blog within three days of spending time with your mentor and/or working on your physical project. 


  • It is up to you how you format your mentor logs, but you must make sure to include the required content.
  •  The mentor logs are very important to your project-- it is how you monitor your progress throughout the physical project, it is how your mentor observes your progress, and it is how I evaluate you on your capstone project. 
  • Share your blog URL with your mentor!
  •  Use your best judgement as to how frequently you should post a mentor log (if you spend 10 minutes on something, you probably don't have much to write about.)


For an example of what is considered to be a thorough and well-done mentor logs, go to http://austingumban.blogspot.com/. This former SSFHS student did an excellent job documenting his work on his physical project and setting goals along the way.
