    Q2:What are some examples of how students demonstrate their learning in your classroom, using a digital portfolio? #akedchat
  • mspillane75 Oct 9 @ 11:11 PM EDT
    A2:Students can show their work by uploading pictures, texts and links to their projects. #akedchat

    A2: I'm thinking I could take the patty paper geo explorations and make them digital. #akedchat
  • D_FitzpatrickAK Oct 9 @ 11:12 PM EDT
    I want the portfolio to be really personal. What evidence does the individual student feel demonstrates meeting the standard? #akedchat
  • mspillane75 Oct 9 @ 11:20 PM EDT
    Q3: What type of tech tools are you using or can you imagine using for the portfolio? #akedchat
  • mspillane75 Oct 9 @ 11:21 PM EDT
    A3: I’ve been using google sites, google slides, Canva, video clips, student pics, and pixabay.#akedchat

    Using just about anything would be acceptable in my mind, because tools would allow us to keep track of anything created. #akedchat

    Q4: How will students use the portfolio besides just turning in to the teacher?#akedChat
  • mspillane75 Oct 9 @ 11:31 PM EDT
    A4:Portfolios can be used for Pt Confs, student presentations and hopefully for further education endeavours. #akedchat
  • D_FitzpatrickAK Oct 9 @ 11:32 PM EDT
    A4: Student self assessment and reflection! Student led conferences, public presentation somehow. #akedchat
  • D_FitzpatrickAK Oct 9 @ 11:40 PM EDT
    Q5 Do you have any resources or examples for successful implementation? #akedChat
  • mspillane75 Oct 9 @ 11:41 PM EDT
    A5:MS Ss don't naturally elaborate. I need to host some mini-lessons on "how to reflect on learning"to see Ss grow in this area.#akedchat

    @gcouros told us at #aste17 that every S should graduate with a website that shows skills/work. Serves as positive job marketing #akedchat
