The tool of reflection is a portfolio, in the creation of which students learn to search, collect and organize pictorial and other types of materials (cultural texts) into relationship structures, logical or associated links and maps.

The construction of the portfolio structure is conceived by each student himself, in consultation and comparison with other members of the discussion group, even if he presents the results of a joint project from the school field.
