I believe that the eportfolio will help me a lot in the future. I do not think it would be necessary to begin creating the portfolio in elementary school. Although, it would be pretty cool to see how much you have grown and learned from such a young age. I think 9th grade was the perfect grade to create a portfolio. 9th grade is when some students start looking for jobs and it is great that they will already have this for employers to look at. For those who are not ready for a job yet will have it when they do want a job. I think this will help me to get employed because it gives me a very positive background. It shows awards I have gotten, work samples I have done good on, and helps to show the employer a little about my interests.
I see the professional page and award page being the most beneficial to my future. The professional page on my portfolio shows my mission statement, resume, and a letter of recommendation. My mission statement shows a little bit about me, my resume shows the experience and skills I have, and my letter of recommendation shows I am a reliable person. My awards page shows many of my achievements. All of those are many things employers look for; having those will help me to get a job in the future. This article applies to this class, because all trimester we have been working on our own portfolios. The article proves even more how much an online portfolio could help us in the future.
