Portfolio+Organization

Welcome or Home Page in wiki ===Create a unique or personal Welcome or Home page—essentially the cover of a traditional portfolio in a binder. This can be done by an introductory video that says something about yourself and your journey to become a teacher. ===

=== Photo Story  would be a great resource to create your INTRODUCTION VIDEO on the Welcome page of your E Portfolio. See the link called Adding a Video for directions. An example of using Photo Story for an artifact in on the sample E Portfolio wiki.===

Eventually you will create a Screencast-o-matic video to help portfolio evaluators navigate your wiki.
Table of Contents:

Professional Background
===<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Your Professional section will be <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">organized with links in the Table of Contents <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Navigation area. The NAEYC heading, when clicked, should have the "high level" description of the standard. ===

===<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The bullets under each NAEYC standard should be labeled with a link to the selected artifact. For example: //<span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Family Literacy Bag. //=== ===When evaluators go to the artifact details, they should 1. view the reflective narrative first. Next, they 2. should see the embedded artifact detail (lesson plan or written description) or click to open an attachment. Below the written artifact should be 3. photos, video, audio files, examples of student work --this is where you should make your artifacts interactive.===

===<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Each of the six NAEYC Standards should be spotlighted with artifacts and reflective narratives. Reflective Narratives will indicate which NAEYC and InTASC sub categories align with your artifact. ===

===<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It is suggested to have 3-5 artifacts in each NAEYC Standard represented in the final presentation portfolio (minimum of three artifacts). NAEYC sub categories and artifacts should not be duplicate. ===

 * ===<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Lesson plans ===

 * ===<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Presentations ===
