Readings Day 9

I get the importance of e-folios I had just a basic example of how I use my district webpage when int3erviewing this last school year. After reading the last two nights readings I have less questions then I started with and although I know it will be time consuming, my goal will be to start with one content area and build on it. I do think the biggest error is starting too big. The biggest question I have at this point is will anyone more then me appreciate the time, work and effort that goes into any type of portfolio.

I agree that portfolios need to be created one step at a time. I thought that the readings have outlined some useful steps that we can use to create useful and powerful ePortfolios.

Hmmmm...tough question to answer Kathleen. I know anyone who creates one will appreciate the time, work and effort, but I think we tend to take Internet for granted now. Do Internet users actually realize the amount of effort it takes to create and upload web work?

I know the teachers I work with do not have a clue how long it takes to create a school website from scratch and then upload it.

I really want to pursue the electronic portfolios for my students because I think it will be motivating for them to have their families from other states be able to interact with them about their work.
