=Tell us your story!=

Your e-portfolio should tell us your story. If you want, add a page about yourself- let us get to know you and the students you serve. Most of all, though, your e-portfolio tells us a story about your teaching profession- how you saw a need (through your data), made a little change (through your action research), and made a big effect (through your student growth data, your reflections).

This "teachersampleportfolio" wiki is intended to give you an idea of what work you should be collecting for your action research project e-portfolio. You do not have to use a wiki, but whatever medium you utilize for your portfolio should include the "pages" noted on here. When you have created your e-portfolio, be sure to link it to our teacher wiki. Just like your students may create a portfolio over time, adding to it as their work progresses, so should you do with YOUR e-portfolio. Get it started, and then just keep adding to it- changing it- making it tell YOUR story.

A few reminders:

1. You will need to complete two technology-infused lesson plans and post them to the "Lesson Plans" page of your portfolio. These lesson plans should reflect a time when you are implementing or directly working with your project and technology tool. Keep me in the loop of when you are getting ready to implement your project- I want to come observe one of the lessons for which you complete the technology lesson plan template. (Scheduling can be tough, so let me know as far ahead of time as you can, and we can be flexible. We have two lesson plans- two chances- for me to come observe.)

2. The blog section is optional, but I strongly suggest/recommend it. Trust me, it's valuable!

3. Use me as a resource! Ideas about what tools to use? What 21st Century skill to implement? How to get the ball rolling? You can shoot me an email or text or give me a call anytime.
