E-portfolios

Does Project Zero ring you a bell? 

PROJECT ZERO

In reference to the use of technology and e-portfolios Project Zero makes a point on their importance in the learning process. 

According to David Perkins, ongoing assessment is essential for learning and students should be given some time to reflect and self- evaluate their learning process.

•  Portfolios provide students with valuable learning opportunities to show and file different learning styles and abilities. 

• New technologies, especially computers, help access to new knowledge and learning strategies

My Learning Objectives

It has been very difficult to design my learning objectives for this course. At first, I felt overwhelmed by the amount of material and the variety of web 2.0 tools and links we had. Now I have explored most of them I found some needs and based on them, I have come up with some learning objectives.


By the end of the course:

1. I will have used and evaluated the web 2.0 learning and teaching tools and mechanisms for promoting knowledge by means of socially driven learning networks. 
2. I will have reflected on my learning process and self-evaluated it
3. I will have participated and created blogs and social networks  while identifying, acessing, aggregating, processing and analyzing the flux of information.
4. I will have understood the aspects related to Multiliteracies and have reached a definition of Technical Literacy

Week 2 Learning Reflection

As Week 2 of PP107 course has come to an end I have begun to outline what to put in an e-portfolio. It sounds an innovative way to select work and show some progress on my learning. I guess some reflections will come up soon.

I have graduated as an EFL teacher and as a Spanish teacher as well.
