Melissa asks: What is the role of an electronic portfolio in my ongoing academic and professional career in educational technology?
Electronic portfolios are being used now more than ever to show growth and knowledge in a variety of areas. According to http://www.eduscapes.com/tap/topic82.htm:
"Electronic Portfolios are a creative means of organizing, summarizing, and sharing artifacts, information, and ideas about teaching and/or learning, along with personal and professional growth. The reflective process of portfolio development can be as important as the final product. In many cases, they are used as part of faculty and student evaluation along with other assessment tools such as standardized tests. A portfolio is a sampling of the breadth and depth of a person's work conveying the range of abilities, attitudes, experiences, and achievements."
I am very happy to be creating an electronic portfolio for my last semester in the Educational Technology Program at Pepperdine. This portfolio will showcase my talents and capabilities within technology, as well as my growth over the year. I personally feel that this portfolio will serve as a basis for the next step in my career and show potential employers the full picture of myself. Not only will the portfolio, show my dedication, commitment, and expertise, but my character as well. This portfolio will give anyone that views it, a well-rounded picture of me!
