While I had set up the basic structure of my portfolio a few weeks ago, I spent the past week gathering artifacts to add some depth and dimension to my work. I chose to use the NETS-Administrator standards as my framework for that section of my portfolio due to the nature of my work and the fact that I am not a classroom teacher. As I was gathering my artifacts to demonstrate my use of these standards, I found that very little I created in my coursework actually made sense; but I discovered that I was able to easily locate examples of work I created in my real-life applications that were a direct result of what I learned in the cohort. I am happy with what I have come up with, I just hope that the fact I didn't use my course artifacts for this section won't count against me.
I am looking forward to putting together the next section of my portfolio related to the courses we experienced and the projects I completed along the way. There were so many opportunities to get creative and showcase abilities, so I am looking forward to that process of reflecting upon and presenting my work.
Sue, I am enjoying putting together all of our past assignments as well. It really makes you realize how much effort has gone into the past year and a half. It also makes me feel a sense of accomplishment after looking at all of the new tools and information we have gathered during this time. I'm glad yours is going well for you. If you have any questions, just let me know during our group time!
