Using Portfolios and E-Portfolios
Authentic Assessment-
includes portfolio assessments and e-portfolios.
With the portfolio assessment strategy it allows students to
collect artifacts or documents that demonstrates the learning outcomes they
have achieved. This allows students to
create power point collections of their world to e-portfolios created via
online portfolio websites.
Your instructional objectives identify very specific
criteria and methods for measuring student success. Your assessment should be specifically
designed to determine whether those objectives have been achieved. Your
students’ mastery of your instructional objectives is the most significant evolution
of your design. Student achievement combined with results from other summative
feedback efforts will give you the information you need to make future
improvements to your design.

learning with technology. Boston: Allyn and Bacon.
I was able to find a helpful website that gives information
about Portfolio Assessments and examples of them.
Also, here is informational video on Portfolio Assessments
that is helpful!
My Live Binder
I created a binder on www.livebinders.com; My Binder consists of Teacher Education websites that are educational and helpful for both the teacher and the student. A few of the "tabs" in my binder are "Teachers Pay Teachers". I absolutely love this website! This is a great website to join, you can share and use other great lesson plans, activities, worksheets, etc. from other teachers. Reminder that you do have to pay a certain amount for specific items but there are freebies on this website! Also, Pinterest is another great website you can make boards and "pin" great educational idea's from classroom management to arts and crafts for your classroom. "Crayola.com" is another great website for educators. This website includes lesson plans and idea's for arts and crafts. These are just a few great educational websites I have came across from prior classes that i enjoy and find helpful. I hope you enjoy them and I will be adding more as soon as I come across new ones!
