> Original Post:
>
> I have been interested in the thread regarding online portfolios. I am
> required to hand in a portfolio each year until I am tenured. I love the
> idea of
> an online type - I work in an elementary school and some of the non-tenured
> teachers have gone over the edge with them creating a scrapbook type of
> document.
> I don't see them that way. I see them as a professional document and wish
> to keep it in that format.
>
> Here are my questions:
> How do I go about putting it online? Are there templates I can use? Are
> they free or do I pay for them? Where do I go?
> TIA
> *********************************************************************
> I created an electronic portfolio a few years ago as part of a
> class. You can view it here:
> http://oelke.com/people/anne/portfolio/intropage.htm
> I did mine as a set of web pages and used Front Page to create
> it. Any web page creation program would work including DreamWeaver
> or one of the various freeware or shareware programs. You would need
> space for hosting it. I don't know if AOL does any of that. The
> other option is to do it and burn it to a CD. Another option is to
> do a Powerpoint.
> There are templates here: http://electronicportfolios.com/nets.html
> Here are some examples: http://www.uwstout.edu/soe/profdev/eportfolios.shtml
>
> You'll notice mine hasn't been updated for a while. It's one of
> those things I should do, but haven't gotten around to. Since I'm at
> the other end of the spectrum and looking toward retirement, it's not
> quite on top of my priority list. You may wish to create yours to
> address state/national standards.

> I'm currently taking a online professional development course called
> Dreamweaver for Teachers through the Global Classroom
> http://www.globalclassroomusa.org/
> The project that we have to complete is an electronic portfolio.
> In the portfolio we have to include our Teaching Philosophy, 3 technology
> integration projects and a student resources page.
>
> I took the course to learn how to use Dreamweaver, web development software.
> This electronic portfolio is something that I can use for my evaluation next
> year.
> Here is a link to a site about electronic portfolios.
> http://ftad.osu.edu/portfolio/
>
> There are plenty of sites that offer free web site hosting and they have
> instructions for making a website if you don't have any kind of web development
> software.
> Check with your Internet Service Provider to see if they offer web space for
> you to post your portfolio.
> Good luck

> Hi,
> Your message caught my eye. I think it's fantastic that your school
> requires a portfolio-- lots of work, I'm sure, but you will be proud of what you
>do.
> I teach an online class for the University of Wisconsin-Stout titled
> "Advocacy and Emerging Issues for media Specialists" One aspect of the class
>is a
> portfolio and students are able to create one that reflects their real life
> work. They can create a web page, PowerPoint--whatever they want.
>
> Here is the link if you are at all interested in a class.

> ************************************
> There is an online service called ePortfolio which I was actually required to
> use by the program I got my library media endorsement through. I believe it
> was $35 a year, and the specific site we went to was www.chalkandwire.com
>
> For us, the base address was followed by a back slash and our schools
> initials, I don't know how you would go about accessing it for a personal web
> portfolio.
>
> I allowed by account to expire (only about two weeks ago!) because I haven't
> used it lately, but I'm thinking about renewing it if I end up in job
> searching again or if my current school decides to use portfolios as part of our
> evaluation process. Since I am at a charter, the evaluation process is a little
> different.
