Congratulations!

You have Launched your Teacher Education Portfolio!

During the rest of your program you will author content into your portfolio. The next course Author your Education Portfolio will help you do that.

Remember, the purpose of this Teacher Education Portfolio is to document your growth as a teacher and that growth is captured through the use of artifacts. Think of them as "mile markers" of your development as an educator. Artifacts are meant to represent all of those moments (both good and bad) where you moved forward as teacher, and not merely showcasing your good grades.

Start looking for “mile markers” of your development as an educator. It could be an assignment, an experience from your field placement (something you document in your journal), a reading, almost anything! When you experience a mile marker head to the Author your Education Portfolio course to put it into your Teacher Education Portfolio!

Just know that this portfolio is yours and it documents your growth as an educator.

Good luck!
