Week 3


This week I am continuing my view on E-portfolios. I am having difficulties in finding relevant information on the subject. Furthermore, I do not know how to cite resources from the internet I will need to do some research into proper web citation. I feel I have fallen even further behind in my work and need to catch up. Fortunately I have the learning outcome and formative assessment sheet so I can easily know where I should be in terms of work. I am yet to decide on what to do for my brief 2; I would like to do something that corresponds to my future goal of teaching English, but I do not know how I would incorporate it into a brief. I am however optimistic in these goals and will continue to work hard to achieve them.

Week 2

In week 2 I was still coming to terms with using Mahara. I find Mahara difficult to use, I had never used or even heard of e-portfolios before I-reflect and was still getting used to the different features it offers. I also found problems in finding information on e-portfolios especially in defining it; finding useable definitions and quotes with proper citations was mostly the problem. However, I eventually was able to manage my Mahara properly and eventually define e-portfolios. Due to problems I was falling behind and was in need of catching up.
