Week #3 Reflection

The article, Electronic Portfolios as Digital Stories of Deep Learning, certainly made me reflect on my own learning and also the learning of my previous students. As I advanced in my studies, I wished I could have created an eportfolio to collect artifacts of my learning so I may reflect and measure my progression. Perhaps, the development of my electronic portfolio in this class maybe my stepping stone.

I agree that assessment of learning is essential for all students but of the ten research based principles related Assessment for Learning (AFL), I can mostly identify with learners should receive constructive guidance about how to improve. I can relate more to the last tenet because the school that I am currently servicing has a 98% low SES, our students are mostly from single parent household or being raised by their grandparents; therefore, some are missing the supportive guidance to improve on their academic work and discipline. By developing an eportfolio to gather their work it will be less time consuming during weekly teacher-student conference time, so I can focus more on commending my students’ effort and recommending room for improvement.

The creation and development of my portfolio will help me know my current status in my education path. By reflecting on the artifacts I have collected in my portfolio, I will know my strengths and weaknesses, and begin a plan for improvement to help me attain my goals.
