2011+Portfolios

As we work to justify the sustainability of the CFF initiative, it is increasingly more important to make the case for our financial and time-based expenditures.

So, below, you will see an outline for what is to be included in a reflective portfolio for an activity or unit that you enhanced with a technology integration component and saw a notable increase in student performance and engagement from prior years.

Please don't hesitate to contact Sam with any questions along the way, especially regarding the LFS component and any questions that you may have about that. It's important to reiterate that this is something that you have already done or will be doing and should not be an add-on to your planning, I know that you don't have time for that.

Thanks, everyone, and I look forward to seeing the portfolios that represent your hard work!

Reflective Portfolio of a Project This small portfolio will be used to take a snapshot of an entire instructional design process for the creation of a technology integrated student project.

I. Elements of the Project • LFS EATS lesson plan and companion document to reflect technology integration components • Links to files/websites used in the lesson • Samples of student work - great way to show the increased performance and engagement from an authentic perspective. • Forms for student approval to use in portfolio - teaches students about digital citizenship as you will ask their permission to share.

II. Summary of the Activity (Two-three paragraph) • NETS listed that were addressed (S & T) explanation of their connection • Evidence that the performance indicators of the NETS, listed above, were met: ◦ [|NETS-S]: http://www.iste.org/standards/nets-for-students/nets-student-standards-2007.aspx ◦[| NETS-T]: http://www.iste.org/standards/nets-for-teachers/nets-for-teachers-2008.aspx

III. Reflection of the Activity • What are your critiques of the lesson? ◦ What went well? ◦ What did not go as well as you would have hoped? • How will you use these two components to change or enhance this activity for the next year? • Past-Present comparison - • How was this done without technology and how has this changed with the technology? • How are students benefiting from the use of technology to complete their work in this new manner?

Portfolio Format The contents of the portfolio should be conveyed in some form of online delivery (e.g. Wikispaces, Google sites, RLASD blogs, etc). The content should be shared, via the URL link, to Jared on or before May 31st, 2011.
