The purpose of this
digital portfolio is to document advanced competencies in teaching in
such a way that others can view the presentation online. Dr. Camille
Wainwright (Pacific University) has described the three essential
elements of any professional portfolio as: collection, selection, and
reflection. The exhibits I have collected
to share and reflect upon coorelate to the 12 Professional Competencies
required
for the Oregon Continuing Teaching License. (Teacher Standards
and
Practices Commission)TSPC
Rather than using this portfolio as an opportunity to "toot my own
horn"(something
teachers don't have time for) I have approached it more as a reflective
tool.
What can I show? What can't I? Why? Where do I go next? Thank you for sharing
this with me.
