13. E-Portfolio

An e-portfolio has been something that has come up a lot recently as I have been searching for jobs. There is always a section in the application that says: link to portfolio. I do not have a portfolio of my work, but if I did, I would want it to be compiled of the work…

13. E-Portfolio

For my portfolio, like a few others have mentioned, I wasn’t really sure how related any of my projects were to be able to tie them together into a portfolio. After giving it a little thought, I think two thing that would definitely be able to work well together are my digital remix and the…

Portfolios, the Final Frontier

It’s the final frontier in that this is the last big project, then we are free from this horrifying digital publishing nightmare, and I can spend a summer curling up in my safe little world of print. No more hypertext for me! For the upcoming portfolios, I have to give some credit to Tomcics. I…

13: Portfolios

I have never created an e-portfolio before and I think Kathleen Blake Yancey’s article helped me start considering what one would look like and how I could go about creating one. I will include all three of my major projects in the portfolio (the digital genre profile, the remix project, and the transmedia project). I…

E-Portfolio

  The final project for this class is an e-portfolio.  Initially, I was pretty sure I was sure what an e-portfolio was and what work it entailed.  I have assembled portfolio’s for three workshop classes before this class, so I feel like I’m pretty prepared to assemble this e-portfolio. Kathleen Yancey defines a portfolio as…

13: Portfolio As Progress

I think my portfolio would specifically need to focus on the aspects of reflection and development. I have had many specific struggles with the major assignments for this course, partially due to my lack of base knowledge in the field of publishing and editing, and thus the major thing I would like to highlight is…

13. Digital Portfolio

For my portfolio I will most likely be including my dating simulator knowledge since I’m known for that. I will also like to included my music medley since I work pretty hard on that one and this last project has been a lot of fun.  As for text to be included in my portfolio I’m…

13: E-portfolio

As many of the other blog posts this time around suggest, I wasn’t the only one who didn’t comprehend exactly how complex the making of a portfolio would be. I’m used to putting a portfolio together for the creative writing workshop classes that I am in, but as Kathleen Yancey talks about in her essay,…

13: Digital Portfolio

  I like how Cara mentioned how easy this will be to transition from hypertext to the portfolio, as “a portfolio is a collection of multimedia works, and, digitally, contains hypertext in how the web of content is strung.” Even though I felt, at times, that hypertext was taught a bit late in comparison to other…

Applications, Interviews, and E-Portfolios, Oh My!

My original perception of e-portfolios most aligned with Steve Watkins’s: “‘an intricately related set of documents, with multilayered, multiaudienced ‘reflective introductions” targeted to different audiences” (Yancey 131). The purpose of a portfolio is to present a selection of work that exemplifies breadth of skill and experience. Producing an e-portfolio is a skill in itself that…
