I have always enjoyed keeping a portfolio each year. I first got into the habit because it was a requirement of first year teachers... but came to enjoy it! The process helped me to reflect on my instructional decisions throughout the year. It became a useful reference to look back on at a later point to see the things that worked ...and the things that didn’t.
And so I have made paper-copy portfolios as a little reference/scrapbook of the years in review. Recently I have been taking graduate classes for School Leadership/Principalship, and though my classes, I believe in the value of promoting others to make portfolios as well. But then I got thinking...What is the best way to keep doing this portfolio thing? Maybe this time, a digital one to cut down on paperwork?
....And so this experiment begins.
