All of the readings this week gave me a lot of pause. I kept stopping and reflecting on my experiences with ePortfolios in class. As I mentioned before, I have had a lot of ups and downs with them in class. It never really stuck. In all honesty, they were something the kids endured until it was over.
The concept of CSLE+ COVA (Harapnuik, Thibodeaux, & Cummings, 2018) in the reading has been very helpful. They are things I have danced around, played with, tried out and worked with for years. The problem was that the things I was doing was taken from all of the things I had learned and seen, but not with a clear strategy. That has changed this year. Part of it was out of necessity. Part of it is really lucky timing. I tend to be pulled from class a lot for a variety of things. A lecture based format just doesn't work in my class. I have to be there to lecture and lead learning. This year, I gave up even more control than ever before. I did so from day 1, twelve days before our 5303 course started. I know that ePortfolios will play a large role in their success this year. I've was struggling with getting the students to employ methods that helped them move past "enduring" portfolios.
I put together a little bit about the online learning communities (or PLNs) I am a part of. I draw a lot of encouragement, learning, and inspiration from these PLNs. They are a place for me to both "consume" information for my own edification and a way for me to share with others who might be able to learn from me as well.

This is a short synopsis of where I am, where I have been, and where I hope to go. For the sake of time, I focuses on the impacts I have had and the impacts I hope to have in the future. -
