Doherty's Student Portfolio

We will create our ePortfolios together in class.

Instructions will follow.

This Website serves as a Template.

• In the context of a course, a portfolio is a collection and representation of your work productivity for this course as well as a demonstration of your progress and learning throughout the semester.

• An ePortfolio - electronic portfolio - is a digital collection and representation.

• Student portfolios usually include: a student’s essays, presentations, photographs, videos, artwork, and other course-related assignments with reflections on each artifact

Portfolios are a way of showcasing, organizing, and reflecting on one's work, progress, and talents.

• From hypertext essays, shorter assignments, primary source documents, student-created presentations, podcasts, and/or films - all of their work is collected, reflected upon, and presented as a digital notebook or portfolio of their work

• The aim is to gather all of their work together in ways that allow them to attain metacognitive understanding of not just the topic of their research or essay question, but for them to become aware of and reflect upon how they learned, what parameters enhanced or limited their understanding, methods, and analysis, and what they learned along the way.
