This week my assignment has been to explore options to create an ePortfolio. As with blogging, ePortfolios are a new concept to me. Even after reading a variety of articles about them I am still unsure what goes into an ePortfolio or what I will be putting into my own. The tool options I explored were Blogger, Wikispaces, and Weebly. Since I have been using Blogger for a few months I felt most comfortable with this option but do not believe a blog will work for creating an ePortfolio because the posts are archived by month/year and not by individual post titles. I was not too impressed with Wikispaces (to use for my own ePortfolio) as the page is very basic and has more of a social media vibe to it. The tool I believe will work best will be Weebly. It was fun exploring these different tools. I just wish I had more time to devote to developing them.
If I were to pick one of these tools to use in my CLASSROOM it would probably be Wikispaces because as I have already stated it works more as a social media. There are options to change your Wiki between use as a wiki, basic website or a classroom feature. The classroom feature includes a news feed and formative assessment feature.
Here are the links to the ePortfolios I created. At this time there really is nothing on them as I was just exploring the creation of them.
