create an electronic portfolio

stayed up until 3am the morning finishing it b4 interviewing, and it was worth it :)

Ended up doing this with a web-design program. It plays on my computer, but I don’t know yet if it will burn to a CD. Anyway, all that’s left is to create links to the artifacts, and then write some quick reflection paragraphs. :)

I’ll do this along with studying for the quals and developing a philosophy of education. They are all interlinked. It will be like synthesizing all the knowledge I’ve been studying over the past decade.

this is too time-consuming to be worthwhile – going to use a regular paper portfolio

this goal is very time consuming. instead of trying to finish it by february, i’m going to do the portfolio as a long term project. as i’m teaching, i’ll take the best lessons/units and add them to the webpages that i’ve already created. that way, this will be an ongoing work in progress.

worked a little bit on the fraction unit page

already have set up the format in Expression Web – i’m going to have to stop using the trial version soon – it’s $299! trying to attach one artifact and write one reflection sheet every day, so it should be done by february.
