to Using Portfolio
Students
may wish to print parts of their portfolio
to take to interviews. Utilize the print version to showcase work
you have done and also promote viewing your online portfolio, and be sure to leave promotional cards.
How to get started:
- Set up your Job Search Account with EPCS
- Make
an appointment with
EPCS for consultation and help in printing and organizing by
calling 608-262-1755.
- Bring your portfolio files storage device (i.e.,
USB/flash drive or Zip disk) to save the print version files.
- Printing
parts of you e-portfolio will take approximately
1 hour.
- What
should you include: You will be able
to print up to 15 pages free of charge, so selection is important
- A select set of items
that best reflect your best abilities-- going through your portfolio and
selecting the items you would like to print prior to coming to EPCS to
print your portfolio will quicken the printing process
- Not every principal
wants to see the same thing-- build your portfolio with a select set of
items that best reflect your abilities
- Principals generally
want to see one or two of your best lesson plans, student work, and perhaps
an example of assessment. Be certain to remove any identifying information
from the student work especially student's name
- A current educational
philosophy
- Pages with images
such as photos, student work, assessments, etc. are visually appealing
- Some
organizing concept examples:
- Include an outline
for a curriculum unit and a lesson from the unit. Your goal here is to
show how you align your actual teaching with goals of the curriculum
- Include an assessment
example that shows that you have aligned your assessment with your goals
for the lesson
- Include student work
that shows it's alignment with your goals for the lesson
- How
do you do it:
- We have set up a
method that allows students to print parts of their portfolios to create
a paper portfolio
- We have a color
laser printer especially for the purpose
- The resulting printout
is of very good quality
- We can also help
you with black and white printouts
- We are required
to recover our supplies and services budget so do need to charge for services
though we have kept them very low
- Some template pages
are very difficult to print nicely so we highly suggest coming in so you
can print your best work
- If you want to try
it on your own we will attempt to explain the process but again would
prefer to help you with this in person so that you get a good result
