[|Electronic Portfolio]

When I first started working on my project, I simply had just the navigation bar, the background theme, and a few quotes on each page. When my profile was first opened, you would see my photo and the information that is currently under the “About me” tab. Next, I added in the links for the Content Knowledge and I listed down on a separate sheet of paper all of the “other subject area's content” to embed my work under that tab. I had a few of the education classes for my pedagogical knowledge, but I still had not put any artifacts. Everything was still fresh, and I was becoming more and more familiar with the website the more I roamed around with it.

I started to put my artifacts into each tab. I collected all the information from my binders from pervious classes and I scanned the most important artifacts I wanted to present in my portfolio. I then added in my scrapbook as the first artifact. Then, I added in the graphic novel digital trailer rubric and letter to my professor. I copied my comprehension project. Next, I added in a small reflection and my Scrapbook Unit was embedded as a document. Under the Social Studies Artifacts, I added in my two lessons that I taught at West Cary, but I still haven't added in the reflection. I've also added the lesson and the PowerPoint we taught in our methods course for Social Studies. I also added more artifacts in under the Impact on Student Learning tab that included my Centennial Campus Middle School partner's poem that we made and the tutoring log at Leesville Road Middle School. As for the 21st Century Technological Skills, I added in many of the videos, but I still need to add in my previous semester's work such as my Autobiography video and Graphic Novel video. Next, I wanted to add in my two extra tabs, which were “Vision” and “Related Experience.” Therefore, I added in my Teaching Philosophy under the vision tab, but I may have to change it around because it has changed over some time. My related experience tab isn't complete just yet, because I am still trying to upload the photograph's and information I have from past experience. I've also added in my updated resume. I've also removed all of my quotations from most of the pages, and finalized my theme to make it more interesting; thus, I used a compass to show my theme throughout the electronic portfolio. Overall, I thought it seemed pretty good to present to the class.

At first, I was really overwhelmed with how I am going to put all of this work together. But as I've started working on it, I really like how its all falling into place. Probably, the most strongest part so far is my theme page. Although, I did include a lot of other artifacts, I still have to add some reflections on some of them. I am looking forward and I definitely can't wait to see the final product!
