My E-Portfolio

The day has come that my E-Portfolio is finally finished.  I am looking forward to see what my classmates have come up with themselves when they present today and Thursday.  I am very proud of my own work and I have been showing my E-Portfolio off to my family as well as a couple of friends already.  This final project helped me a lot with using blogger and I believe that I will go back to this page to make updates as well as continuing to blog beyond ETAD 470.  I also have been thinking of what uses I could use a blog in my future classroom.  I think it would be a good idea to use a blog to post daily class notes and deadline dates for assignments.  This way if students were absent they could go to the blog and catch up on what they have missed.  This way they are responsible for the days they missed and the opportunity is there for them to catch up and then that way I would not have to deal with filling them in on what they missed the following class.  I dealt with this a lot through internship where students would miss a class and come up to me either before or after class or during lecture to ask what they missed.  It would also be a quick reminder if they were unsure of certain due dates for assignments as well as dates for quizzes and exams.
