Purpose and Objective

The purpose of this portfolio is to keep track of the whole practice teaching experience and to have evidence of it. It is a record of all the classes given and how I imparted my teaching philosophy. It also has evidence of the teaching-learning process and how I executed my class through videos, pictures and description/narratives. It’s a new and different way to hold my documents which is by using the internet. By it being a blog, it is more accessible and you can take it practically everywhere instead of carrying around a heavy portfolio. You also get to experience the videos and other formats such as presentations which can’t be viewed in a regular portfolio. It also gets us more hooked with the internet and technology (let’s face it; it’s what students love and sometimes prefer). We’re living in a technological world where each day documents are preferred to be seen via internet. Besides, it’s one of the best ways to collect such a wide range of information in a presentable matter.

My objective with this electronic portfolio is to keep it as a memoir or proof of all the hard work and learning experiences that will go through the practice teaching. It is a way to look back and see in what I can improve in and what good things I should re-use that worked out for me. It will also help me organize all the information and important documents as well as reflect upon this whole process; what I’ve learned and what I can improve on. Overall, it will help me evaluate myself and have at my reach such a valuable part of my academic life; my clinical practice.
