Sustained Investigation: Written Evidence

Along with uploading images of your work for the Sustained Investigation section, you’ll write and submit answers to prompts about your work and your creative process.

Instructions

1. Open the Written Evidence tab.

While you’re in the Sustained Investigation section, open the Written Evidence tab. 

2. Respond to the two prompts.

Click Add/Edit and write your responses to these prompts in the text fields:

• Identify the inquiry that guided your sustained investigation. Explain how you used tools, research, and experimentation (including digital or AI-assisted ideation, if applicable) to develop and refine this inquiry. If AI tools were used, describe how they expanded your questioning, reflection, or conceptual understanding, not how they generated outcomes.
• Describe ways your sustained investigation developed through practice, experimentation, and revision. Include how you may have used digital tools or AI for ideation, research, experimentation, or revision to support your creative process. Describe how your reflection and decision-making guided these tools, emphasizing authorship and ethical use.

Your written evidence is limited to 850 characters per response, including spaces.

3. Remember to save changes before leaving.

To return to viewing your images in the Sustained Investigation section, click the Images tab, but be sure to select Save first.

4. Come back to this tab to view or edit your written evidence.

You can edit your responses in the Written Evidence tab any time before you submit this portfolio component as final.
