Step+5+-+Creating+an+Online+Portfolio

=Step 5 - Create an online portfolio=

After collecting some digital artifacts that you are going to inlcude in your portfolio (or even before you are done the collection), you need to start a web site that you can put your items on. There are many different sites that allow you to make a web site (like wikispaces, for example, which is where this web site is). You are free to explore options, but one of the ones that I like best for creating a portfolio is Weebly (http://www.weebly.com). They have a variety of web site templates and it is easy to add media files - pictures, audio files - to the site. It is also easy to insert youtube videos on to the web page, so if you have any videos on youtube that display your skills you can easily include them.

Assignment: Start a site on Weebly. Begin creating pages that match the categories you created in Step 4. Since Weebly has many templates that you can choose from, take a look at them and find one that matches the job/post-secondary program that you are interested in. Start adding pictures, videos, etc. to the site. E-mail me once you have your site started.

Due date: June 7 (doesn't have to be in final form, but I want to see that you've made a start)

Then on to Step 6 - Digital Portfolio
