Choose specialization from demonstrated gaps

This generated surface maps a learner-facing curriculum unit to its canonical source routes.

Curriculum surface​

  • Open learner-facing unit
  • Curriculum path: content/curriculum/production/semester-10-capstone/module-05-portfolio-specialization-assessment/concepts/cluster-07-evidence-extension/23-transfer-plan.md
  • App: production
  • Semester: semester-10-capstone
  • Module: module-05-portfolio-specialization-assessment
  • Unit kind: concept
  • Curation level: module_curated

Learning objectives​

  • Explain Choose specialization from demonstrated gaps as demonstrating engineering judgment, specialization depth, and clear communication rather than merely packaging artifacts.
  • Use Choose specialization from demonstrated gaps to decide how the capstone should be presented, defended, and connected to the broader roadmap and specialization goals.
  • Use building-secure-and-reliable-systems to connect the learner explanation to technical storytelling, evidence of decisions, and professional presentation of engineering work.

Prerequisites​

  • Comfort with the full capstone lifecycle, including architecture decisions, implementation evidence, deployment, and operational tradeoffs.

External enrichment​

  • GitHub Docs: README Best Practices (official_docs_companion) - Useful when the learner needs to turn a capstone repository into a clear, reviewable public engineering artifact.
  • Thoughtworks Technology Radar (optional_deep_dive) - Provides a concrete example of how engineers communicate technology choices, stance, and specialization signals professionally.

Source-of-truth note​

This teaching unit is learner-facing guidance. Its canonical source backbone is the referenced book building-secure-and-reliable-systems, and outside material should only clarify or strengthen that backbone.
