First of all, the topic ‘e-portfolio’ was very new subject to me and I didn’t have any ideas at all what I have to do. During week 1 and week 2 our class talked and researched about e-portfolio and getting to know about it. Through the research, I found that e-portfolio is a good way to represent yourself or your knowledge with modern technology which also can be the approach to show one of my abilities in using computer skills.
At week 4, I posted some terminologies that related with e-portfolio to class wiki (aut online) and registered as a member of ireflect blog to share ideas with my classmates as developing our assets. I posted some in the blog but I think that wasn’t enough which I could do more and also I guess the blog communication didn’t work so well among our classmates either. This is because they might be too busy with working on their own Mahara?!
Until the end of week 4 I created my view at Mahara and submitted my proposal as a starting point of my development. I chose a topic as a “Second Language Acquisition” because I’ve always had lots of interest about it and thinking to go graduate school with that major so I want to develop more ideas about it with more research. Also I’m taking ‘iresearch’ as one of my core papers and the topic SLA is the same topic that I research on.
I suppose the ESL students who have similar interests with me would be audiences of my developments as well as some ESOL teachers who want to get useful resources for their teaching because I planned to put some links that have lots of good materials for ESOL teaching, like listening and reading comprehension, wring topics, grammar exercises and so on.
Therefore my asset tends to be used for more research like developmental work for my special interest instead of just simple showcase for my prospective employers or my lecturers.
