I built a course-based ePortfolio and a project-based ePortfolio in a second year writing course. My areas of expertise were in design, data management, and document organizer.

A brief history + Hyperlinks to my ePortfolio/s

COURSE-ORIENTED ePORTFOLIO

My course-oriented W231 ePotfolio examines all of the Writing projects through out the semester. This ePortfolio was an opportunity to experience how to create a website and create a unique way of turning in assignments. As part of the design process, we learned writing strategies to grab an audiences attention through strategic design.

PROJECT-ORIENTED ePORTFOLIO for our COMMUNITY CLIENT

The IU School of Medicine Recomendaiton Report examines the challenges students face with academic advising during their undergraduate experience. Our team started the project by researching best practices in advising trends and successful advising strategies. The research included searching scholarly databases first, then expanded to internet-based searches to look at advising programs at other universities. After one hundred hours of digital research, the team assessed IUPUI student experiences through a local study and emailed several academic advisors to get their feedback. Our report analyzes the results and suggests practical options to support effective advising practices at IUPUI.

Where I am today and how ePortfolios played a role

The group oriented ePortfolio was accepted into the 2022 IUPUI project based learning showcase

The ePortoflio has helped me with communicating with other as well as learning how to create something unique.

The project based leanring course has helped me gain insight on how the professional world works, and helped me land a spot in a reasearch lab as well as a few other positions on IUPUI campus.

The course based ePortfolio encouraged me to create an ePortfolio showing all I do at IUPUI

My thoughts on the panel discussions:

I truly enjoyed being able to speak on the panel about ePortfolio's. I was able to gain experience from the professional world being that this was the first panel I have ever spoken on. ePortfolios are an extrodinary new learning tool that help students gain insight on organization and a professional setting. For that, I'm thankful I got to share my experience and hear about others experiences as well!
