Why My Six-Year-Old Students Have Digital Portfolios - Kathy Cassidy
This teacher has students creating digital portfolios. Many high schoolers don't do this and yet this teacher does it with 6 year olds. You don't have a choice, it is important, even if via dvd, to help students know how to build portfolios. If I were enrolling my child in a new school today, it wouldn't just be about test scores, I'd call and ask to see some sample portfolios. Savvy parents and board members will ask to see the same.
