I am in the process of creating a digital portfolio to publish work I have done over the course of my time at Michigan State University. I am putting up lesson plans, other teaching related papers and assignments, a poetry book I created and more. This serves as a way for me to reflect on what I have done and see how my teaching philosophies and abilities have changed over time. It is also a way for my family, friends, possible employers, etc. to see the work I have done. View my portfolio here.
Part of why it is important for me to have this portfolio is because I plan on using digital portfolios in my future classes. Having my own portfolio to show students will help demonstrate the possibilities and importance. Using portfolios with elementary students would create something longterm for students to look back at, save space in the classroom, and create all kinds of opportunities for multimedia creating, among other things. I am excited about the possibilities of using digital portfolios with my classes. This article helps explain these ideas.
