Welcome to My Portfolio

INTRODUCTION

This portfolio is templated on the electronic portfolio assignment for students in the UTeach program at the University of Texas at Austin. I have made some modifications, but for the most part the design is theirs.

The portfolio is broken into seven sections, all accessible from the left navigation menu. Under each section are subsections which focus on a particular aspect of the containing section. These subsections are also accessible directly from the left navigation menu.

Throughout the portfolio are links to supporting documents. All of the supporting documents will be opened in a new window to make navigation more seamless.

RELATION TO THE PROFICIENCIES

The five proficiencies which I hope to demonstrate through this portfolio are:

1. Learner-Centered Knowledge: The teacher possesses and draws on a rich knowledge base of content, pedagogy, and technology to provide relevant and meaningful learning experiences for all students.
2. Learner-Centered Instruction: To create a learner-centered community, the teacher collaboratively identifies
   needs; and plans, implements, and assesses instruction using technology and other resources.
3. Equity in Excellence for All Learners: The teacher responds appropriately to diverse groups of learners.
4. Learner-Centered Communication: While acting as an advocate for all students and the school, the teacher demonstrates effective professional and interpersonal communication skills.
5. Learner-Centered Professional Development: The teacher, as a reflective practitioner dedicated to all students’ success
   demonstrates a commitment to learn, to improve the profession, and to maintain professional ethics and personal integrity.

Here is a "road map" for those who would like to view material per proficiency.
