Quest 4 - Assignment 5, Final: Celebrate your Learning!

Wow, what a busy summer you've had!  Time to showcase all your hard work!  

• Share a link to your Google Site ePortfolio within this comments area.  
• Within your Google Site ePortfolio, include at least one artifact and one reflection for that artifact.  Note:  Your ePortfolio itself can be your main artifact and the subject of your reflection if you are building an ePortfolio to show professional growth.  Please upload another artifact either way so you can practice the mechanics of that process.
• Elaborate on why your artifact was selected and its meaning and value in your portfolio.  
• What is the artifact's value to Loyola Academy?
• Thinking more broadly, what does your ePortfolio show about your learning and how you have grown professionally from this summer online course?  
• What more can you learn on the topic of ePortfolios?
• What suggestions do you have for improving this learning environment?
• Magis:  Check out the work of one of your colleagues' posted herein, if any.  Comment on one aspect you found valuable and/or interesting and why.

Quest 3

Quest 3 of Summer Camp:  Google Sites as ePortfolio

This was a huge quest, with a lot of information on tech and the ePortfolio development process!  When you have completed Assignment 4, share your story about developing your ePortfolio around the campfire here.

• Tell us about the purpose and type of content you will have for your ePortfolio 
• Tell us your reasons for choosing this purpose
• Tell us whether and/or how you grew in your technology skills and your understanding of ePortfolios as you developed your site
• Include the link to your shared site within your post

Quest 1 - Welcome to summer online PD: Google Sites as ePortfolios!

We will be exploring a number of ways to exchange thoughts during this course.  Our first online discussion will be on a blog.  This will be a way for us to get to know who is participating and for you to think about your goals for this course.  Think about it as sitting around the campfire to tell our stories!

Once you're settled in on your beach chair, click on the "Post a comment" space herein and please tell us the answers to the following questions:

1.  Your first name and what discipline you teach.
2.  How the topics of ePortfolios and the reflection component of the IPP connect with what you already know or do.
3.  What you hope to achieve by completing this course.
