2nd Post 555

What important info is my portfolio missing at this point?

I have yet to write an introduction page. I now know why we were doing that for several of the courses in this program. I am also missing a few artifacts. I wish we could access all of the Angel and PBWorks sites from all of our former classes. While we were enrolled in the classes, I was thinking "I won't forget the gist of this class". But as with anything, the further away from something you get in time, the more the recollections are gone.

I mentioned it before, but I will again. Rereading all of the blogs I have written throughout this program goes a long way in remembering the important sights, sites, sounds and feelings/opinions that I underwent and evolved through.

Lastly, I am missing the idea(s) for my culminating experience for 599. I am still "brainstorming" that one. A few ideas that I have are writing/finishing websites that supplement the classes I will teach next year along with a battery of online assessments.
Perhaps I could propose writing some Q & A lessons where I poll the students and require them to answer via their cell phones (against my school rules).

  1. I have to agree, Bill, that parts of this e-portfolio are, well, intimidating for me. I don't know if I'm going in the right direction or not. But if I don't try, I'm not going to get it done, so onward!

    I wish that this portfolio had been stressed from the very beginning, as I think I would have duplicated all my assignments somewhere so I could access them. Also, after all the online courses I've taken, and paid for, I'm starting to think that after you've finished a course you should still have access to it - like keeping your textbook for future reference. Maybe this is something Stritch needs to think about in the future.

    And by the way - love the picture!!!!
