Module 7 - E-Learning for Educators

E-portfolios!

I am excited to start working on my e-folio. I enjoy creating e-folios, but the problem for me is I can easily get sucked into spending hours designing and adding information to the e-folio! Hopefully, I can remain aware of the time!

I had my students at Augsburg College create online e-portfolios in my Business and Professional Speaking class. Learning the MN e-folio program was very frustrating for students at first, but once students understood the software, it became easy and fun! The programs can be frustrating to learn because the format of the e-folio requires students to think about information in a different manner.

I am planning on adding on to my current employment e-folio and will add a section specifically devoted to online teaching. I want to maintain the integrity of the original portfolio and expand it to allow potential future employers to view my online teaching tools. I want to group the tools by categories versus classes.

I really do not have much more to say this week. Besides, I better get to work!! E-folio here I come!!
