E-Portfolio

Why have you chosen to complete an e-portfolio?
I have chosen an e-portfolio because I feel that a web quest isn't as practical for use in a PAA setting as other classes. I want to use my portfolio for help in getting hired.

What professional uses does an e-portfolio have for you?
I plan on using this during my interview and hiring process to assist in showing my skills as a PAA teacher and educator. 

What content do you plan to include?
I plan on including example unit and lesson plans I have written, project ideas for different shop areas and levels, my resume and more. I would like to have a picture of myself with some write up example of who I am and what I do. 

What graphic design considerations have you taken into account for the look of your e-portfolio?
(Include a drawing, sketch or layout to show what you pages may look like.)
I don't plan on doing anything too radical, but what I imagine it to look like would be using a dark background with white lettering. Easy navigation bar on the right with a heading at the top with an e-portfolio banner. If you want me to draw something for you, I'll hand that in for next class. 

What concerns do you have about the process? How do you plan to address these concerns?
I'm wondering if I'll have enough content that I could include into my e-portfolio, or if the look I'm imagining isn't very professional. I could just change how my portfolio looks, and I believe I could use more in depth content from my internship to help fill out my portfolio, possibly contact a few people to help gather extra resources.

Vacation is Over

It is with a heavy heart as I return to the grind of classes and work. After a week off, it can be really hard to get back into gear. My wife and I have just returned from holidays with the family and it was a magnificent time. Nothing but sleep, hot-tub, games, nap, eat and repeat. It was a time of bonding and recuperation, and now is where I return to all that I was recuperating from. I return to realize that I have two essays due, one this week and one next. Return to find that I have two interviews this week and I was now taking the last available interview time available because being out in the middle of nowhere makes contact difficult. Also I missed my little brother's birthday and he's the youngest of five with none left at home... All in all what I have to say is that the holiday's were amazing, just wish that life didn't move on while your putting it on pause.
