A nice presentation focussed on preparation for the job-interview. The problem is that an ePortfolio can be used for so many other things. It would be good to see such a clear and straightforward approach be used to present on 'constructivism', feedback, peer-review etc. Another presentation could deal with using the one set of artefacts spread across different personas.

Everyone already has a brand – no matter what their professional level or years of experience. Learn how to define your new grad brand. More than ever these days, in job search you need to stand out from your competition. That means differentiating your own unique combination of top personal attributes, qualifications, motivating skills (those you excel at AND love doing the most), strengths, values and passions. This set of traits represents your promise of value to your target employers. That’s your brand.

Tim Dalton writes very eloquently as a schoolteacher, but, as I argue, many of his concerns are coloured by institutional thinking, rather than thinking creatively and constructively.

This project aimed to embed the use of ePortfolios as a ‘fundamental cornerstone for the pedagogical process . . . and the educational institute’s administrative processes’ (Aalderink, 2005), into both the student and faculty workflows across all courses.

Benefits of an ePortfolio . . . . . . for Students, Educators, Employers or Corporate Companies I started this blog to reflect on my own learning in a class on social media and open education. Since I have enjoyed the experience, I am continuing to write about my informal learning as it grows. I am trying to keep informed about the latest developments in the world of ePortfolios or personal learning environments. If I read something that I find intriguing, or that I simply want to remember, I’m planning to capture it and share it by blogging it – right here.

This posting was prompted by a question I was asked during a recent teacher training session that I was delivering on digital study skills and digital literacy. I can’t remember the exact wording of the question but in essence it was this; “How can we get our students to appreciate using digital tools and web based activities to develop their study skills, when in their exams they are only allowed to use pencil and paper?”

The environment of further and higher education is changing in response to economic pressures, government policies and a cultural shift marked by an increasing emphasis on student satisfaction and concerns about the impact of rising student fees. So how are colleges and universities responding to these challenges and preparing for the future?JISC’s new guide on Emerging Practice in a Digital Age shows how colleges and universities are continuing to embrace innovation in use of mobile technologies, social software and virtual worlds despite constraints on public funding.
