2017-2018 Goals
Goal 1: By April of 2018, I will partner with 2 teachers that I did not work with previously to implement eportfolios with their students.
ePortfolio Tweets
Reflection: I had great experiences with teachers co-teaching in their classrooms. I co-taught eportfolio and artifact lessons during 65 class periods. I found teachers to be engaged in the process and grateful that I was there to lend a helping hand. The next step for these teachers is to help students with eportfolios without my help based on the knowledge they learned during our co-teaching experience.
Goal 2: By April of 2018, I will partner with 2 teachers I have worked with previously to move them to being independent facilitators of eportfolios with their students.
Student Artifact and Reflection Exemplars
Reflection: I know many teachers completed eportfolio lessons because of the feedback I received from them. They tended to be proud of achieving the milestone of being able to help students confidently. One Spanish teacher created her own scaffolding reflection activity, and we saw a vast improvement in student reflections I chose screenshots from student eportfolios from 3 teachers: one each from DeLay, Huffines, and Killough. There are more links to Killough student eportfolios here. Sharing permission is limited to anyone in LISD.
Goal 3: By April of 2018, I will increase awareness of the Instructional Technology Skilled Document to teachers through newsletters, Twitter chats, and face-to-face meetings.
Newsletter and Twitter Chat Graphics
Reflection: I did accomplish my first 2 actions steps (to provide information via a newsletter and a Twitter Chat), but I did not have as much opportunity to talk about the skilled document face-to-face with teachers. It is my hope that every summer course used this document as a starting point in 2018. I certainly plan to use it in the courses I design.
