Showcase and discover the latest work from top online portfolios by creative professionals across industries.
Dennis T OConnor's insight:

E-Learning portfolios are an essential for any online teacher looking for an online job.  These examples show the skills of professional designers.  As teachers, we aren't expected to be designers. However the more creative and innovative your work is, the better!  Think about your online presence!

A great resource for students to collect and collate their work.

Can Twitter Replace Traditional Professional Development?

Can Twitter Replace Traditional Professional Development? | E-Learning and Online Teaching | Scoop.it
Twitter and Facebook might soon replace traditional professional development for teachers. Instead of enduring hours-long workshops a few times a year, teachers could reach out to peers on the Internet in real time for advice on things like planning a lesson (or salvaging a lesson that’s going wrong), overcoming classroom management problems, or helping students with disabilities.
