am I the only one who refers to this class as 'wumbo'

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

@BrittynRhetoric I have too, I'm also trying to see mine as a composition as a whole

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

@emmavreyeswepo I agree! This break down makes things a lot easier to digest

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

@emmavreyeswepo Same, I'm glad we read these, I think they both also gave a lot of ideas for the final projects

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

@frantzlida I thought this was one of the coolest parts of this article, seeing portfolios that were specifically catered to student's areas of interest!

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

@M10384088 I didn't realize this either but it definitely makes sense! After all we're all making one for our learning institution

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

"Is it the case, as well, that eportfolio viewers/readers might need special preparation for eportfolio viewing/reading if they are to understand what an eportfolio represents and how it can be a composition?" What do you guys think about this? #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

A typo is in our midst #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

For you guys, what seemed like the most important final thought that they came up with after the meeting? I think this one was pretty significant: "Some of the meaning of Kristina’s eportfolio comes from the visual, and a visual that is more than what the page offers"

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

Idk why but I really loved how they said that teachers make assignments, and students animate those assignments #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

We can conclude so far that Yancey, McElroy, and Powers are trying to understand ePortfolios as compositions #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

What is the major duty of an ePortfolio? I think one of them is definitely self-representation, but should all the things being represented reflect ones academic abilities? Or can they be more personal? Does that take the professionalism out of them when they are assessed?

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

What do they mean when they say that "audience is amplified by the eportfolio?" That these reach a larger audience than the previous types of portfolios? Or that the audience just has more to consume in different ways?

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

The article defines ePortfolios in many different ways, one being as "a composition operating inside multiple networks." #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

"Assessing the new portfolios seemed to require but a minor adjustment, an extension of what was: a statement of outcomes, a scoring guide, careful reading." What is the main difference in assessing ePortfolios than paper ones? #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

"Changes in the technology of text invariably trigger changes in the shape of text. ~Steve Bernhardt" true that Steve #KRWEPO19 #Yanceyandothers

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

What are some downsides to ePortfolios? Does the fact that they require platforms to be accessed limit them in some way? As we learned earlier this semester, even having a wifi connection is a privilege that we don't consider just how many people don't have #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

One of the example ePortfolios shows a student dividing hers into three sections: artifacts, coursework, and reflection. All these examples are actually really good fuel for ideas with our upcoming final project #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

"At St. Olaf College, the four criteria ePortfolios were to meet focused on four types of thinking: thinking in context, thinking in community, thinking integratively, and thinking reflectively." #KRWEPO19

[Emma Cuccio @CuccioEmma]

This part of the article has some really good ideas for things to put in our ePortfolio final projects: "for example articulating prior knowledge situating their learning; synthesizing their learning within a course and connecting to learning in other contexts" #KRWEPO19
