Week 2

 

Week 2 Reflections: 

Along with doing the activities you see above, this week in Technology Across Curriculum we also learned about e-portfolios, how to use them and how to set them up.  We had a discussion about the growing use of portfolios in the classroom and the benefits they have. I really like the student portfolios and thought they had so many great aspects to them. The component I liked the most was the ability to upload video and audio to the portfolios. Using the e-portfolios for talking points during student-parent-teacher conferences would be a really meaningful tool to demonstrate the students performance in the classroom. We also discussed using an e-portfolio in a professional setting, using an e-portfolio to represent yourself digitally. I think this is a great idea and can be used during interviews with perspective employers.
