portfolio to me

1. What do I see in the future in regards to technology and educational technology?
A: One of my friends said computer and tech are definitely the trend. I agree with this
point of view that technology plays an very important role for modern life and is going
to take more and more part in our daily life. Technology for education is also a growing
field for today’s research. Making good use of educational technology to reach the
goal of any lesson or subject will be an important skill to assist teachers’ teaching now
and in the future.
2. If you were granted $20,000 to use in your school for educational technology, how
would you use it?
A: Recently my principle is planning to set up 2 room particularly for individually using
computer and internet. She needs 60 brand-new computers, internet sets, one
projector, etc. This $20,000 might help a lot.
3. How would you use a portfolio (think about grants, raises, changes in position, like the
A: building techie, etc?
As portfolio is an organized collection of artifacts or individual, tangible products that
verify a teacher’s professional growth, I think both paper portfolio and e-portfolio
are very important for us. I collected all the certificates I got, awards, lessons plan
of each presentation I have done, biography, worksheets and pictures of any
activities. I arranged these materials as a portfolio to describe my teaching life,
especially paper portfolio. My school haven’t check our portfolio, but there is a
competition in our county. If someday I want to change my school or my position, it
might help a lot.

4. What would you or have you included in a portfolio -- think back to the one you needed to create for Undergrad and/or to get your current job (this can be paper or electronic or a combo)
A: As I mentioned above, I collected all the certificates I got, awards, lessons plan
of each presentation I have done, biography, worksheets and pictures of any
activities. I arranged these materials as a portfolio to describe what I have.
I used it to get my job-a teacher when I just graduated from a teacher’s college.

My question. How do you think?(老師叫我po的)

Well, every one,
Up to this time, teaching through some softwares or computer seems trendy, teachers in Taiwan see showing our computer skill in our teaching presentation as very important part, but in my viewpoint, sometimes it might not be suitable for every student with different learning style. For example, some students learn efficiently through moving their body, so just seeing the slide or sitting before a computer might not address them. My question in this week is “when people nowadays think teaching through projector, computer or other technological devices as a trend, will traditional person to person teaching be replaced in the future?”
