Why have you chosen to do an e-portfolio?
I hope that creation of this project will prove my electronit prowess. This will be a good resourse for other teachers if I happen to become a substitute.
What professional uses does an e-portfolio have for you?
The e-portfolio is going top help me find employment. Why create a portfolio the old fashioned way, when you could create a portfolio for the 21st centurey that all prospective employers can readily access?
What content do you plan to include?
My portfolio will include:
-my educational background
-my personal interests
-my teaching experience
-contact information for my refereces
-jpeg files of leters of recomendation
-a downloadable PDF of my resume
-a link to my blog
What concerns do you have about the process? How do you plan to address these concerns?
The biggest issue I have for my portfolio is learning to transfer me "suitcase" from home to school. This transfer also means a change of platform from PC to Mac. My other concern is that if I want my web page to have a professional look it will be very time consuming, my strategy is to start early and work a little everyday before bed, kind of like reading a book. I have purchased web design for dummies to assist this process.
Great page layout. I hope the book is helpful but do not hesitate to ask me for help. It is my job after all. I am a big believer of doing a bit each day as well. It is amazing what you can accomplish over time.
