WHAT IS AN E-PORTFOLIO?

"In general, an e-portfolio is a purposeful collection of

information and digital artifacts that demonstrates
development or evidences learning outcomes, skills or
competencies. The process of producing an ePortfolio
(writing, typing, recording etc.) usually requires the
synthesis of ideas, reflection on achievements, self-
awareness and forward planning; with the potential for
educational, developmental or other benefits. Specific
types of e-portfolios can be defined in part by their
purpose (such as presentation, application, reflection,
assessment and personal development planning),
pedagogic design, level of structure (intrinsic or
extrinsic), duration (episodic or life-long) and other
factors.(Simon, 2011)

INTRODUCTION
This e-portfolio shows evidence of the development of the
teaching practice process, all the technological resources
that were used and also a little reflection of it.

Technological Resources
FACEBOOK
She used this
technological resource to
keep in touch with her
students but the most
important thing was that
she used it to create an
English environment
where student could
interact each other and
make different activities.
SELF REFLECTION
She made a good job with those guys but also she
thinks that she could have done it better; maybe if she
would have had more time she would get lost into the
magic of teaching.

CONCLUSION
It is important to do an e-portfolio because in it we can
make it easier to show the evidence that can not be
shown in a paper portfolio and if we put it on the web
it is so much easier to get recommendations from
more experienced teachers.
