portfolio: artifact excerpt

Q: Below is an excerpt from the new guideline... I am preparing my artifact list, and want to ensure I am doing it correctly... when they say they want a brief description for this list, do they want a very detailed explanation of what the papers were about, etc., or do they basically want a summary, as in "This is a term paper written for LIS600, titled such-and-such, and the grade received was such-and-such".  I'm not certain if they're looking for detail here, or just a basic inventory of what is included in the portfolio to keep track of the inclusions. 

Excerpt:  List of the course artifacts or other materials selected for inclusion in the portfolio. This summary list should include a brief description of each artifact provided, the course it came from, the course objectives associated with it, and the assessment (i.e., grade and/or feedback) provided by the instructor. (See the list of required artifacts for the core courses in the “Artifacts” section below.) List and describe any other supporting documents you have elected to include. 

A:  It should be brief. In addition to the basic info, write a few sentences of what is this artifact, for which you can look at the assignment instructions/descriptions.
