In creating a
portfolio, you will reflect on
your achievements. By asking yourself
these three basic questions:
WHAT...
What did you do well?
Why have you chosen these pieces to
represent your work? Are there exhibits that you wish you could
add?
SO WHAT...
What did you learn from this
experience? What do you know that you didn't know before? What can you do
that you couldn't do before? What
standards do your artifacts fulfill?
NOW WHAT?
What effort are you proudest of and why?
Based on your achievements, what might you do next? Why?
By engaging in this thoughtful process,
you will gain a deeper understanding of the power of your work and its
influence on student learning. Artifacts show achievement, or provide
evidence, while reflections elaborate on the meaning, and value of the
experience. This process allows you to grow professionally.
