Notes de l'éditeur
- Presenter: Shani Talking Points: Introducing Us... inviting them to read quote... segue to presentation...
- Presenting Preferences: Shani Talking Points: Technology shouldn't be the focus of this exercise, it's just a medium. The important thing is finding a voice to represent yourself & your experiences in the program. As a secondary objective you may find ways to represent or position yourself for future employment based on your interests and experience. NOT intended as an objective description and documentation of your activities or a formal assessment against specific objectives. Just as you personalize the curriculum of the program, this should be a personal experience.
- Presenter: Sarah Talking Points: (2 minutes) You already have a statement of purpose and resume from your application to the program, so these are simple elements to include. For Learning Themes ... Can you clearly explain to the reader or listener what you focused on during the program, what you consider to be themes or threads that are woven throughout your masters program experience? Based on the work products that derive from your assignments in each course you will have plenty of artifacts. Be selective, you don't need to, nor should you include them all. Can you explain why some assignments were more important to you, why you chose to include these examples, and what you learned from working on them? Explain how your work on the assignments fit with, developed, expanded, or formed your learning themes. Most important, include a " final reflection ", in writing, film, or multimedia. Compose this towards the end of your program and consider the whole journey, other things occuring in your life during this period, how you've changed, and where you see yourself in the future.
- Presenter: Brendan Talking Points: (2 minutes... or less) Most people order their portfolio chronologically as this is the order in which you experience events. Make sure you also explain your learning themes throughout the portfolio. Integrating themes with a chronological approach could provide more than one way to view your portfolio (see Brendan's as an example).
- Presenter: Brendan Talking Points: We expect that you will gain meta-cognitive ability during this program. Reflection and integration will get easier as you mature as a scholar, accumulate experience, and clarify your learning objectives for your self. Your growth in ability and self-awareness should be evident in your artifacts and your reflective writing that you include in the portfolio.
- Presenter: Shani Talking Points: link to Shani's "themes" page as example of how I used questions at early, middle, and end of program.
- Presenter: Sarah kicks off, we all weigh in on it. (I think we'll spend alot of time here) Talking Points: (4 minutes) narrative [ na ‐ră‐tiv], a telling of some true or fictitious event or connected sequence of events, recounted by a narrator to an audience. Narratives are to be distinguished from descriptions of qualities, states, or situations, and also from dramatic enactments of events. A narrative will consist of a set of events (the story ) recounted in a process of narration (or discourse ), in which the events are selected and arranged in a particular order (the plot ). Can you develop a personal narrative that through reflection exposes your identity, strengths, weaknesses, achievements, disappointments, curiosities, learning experiences, passions , and hopes for the future? A good starting point for this story and driving force for your plot is the reason you chose this program or how you want to explain the context of your life at this time. Each of us had a different perspective to base our story on because of the primary force in our lives at the time we were in the program.
- Presenter: Brendan Talking Points: 2min or less You should consider the art of storytelling and narrative when writing or composing your portfolio. This slide contains some suggestions on how to do so, but I encourage you to spend some time reading more on the web. There is plenty to be found if you search the web for "storytelling portfolios narrative". This can be a powerful form for representing yourself and your learning if used thoughout the portfolio. It could take the form of organizing your portfolio around a journal or blog. It could take the form of writing a mini-book about your program with each semester as a "chapter" in the story. As a more self-contained form, recording a film or using multimedia to compose a "digital story" also makes a powerful final reflection piece. Use Brendan's portfolio as a reference to use of graphics in portfolio to enhance story Use X as an example of an interview-format film in portfolio: (I need to look this up says B)
- Presenter: Sarah Talking Points: (90 sec.. or less) You should be thoughtful about how you represent yourself, the HALE program, your employer, project sponsors, people that gave you access to their lives and organizations. Remember that you didn't have a high level of experience or training in procedures and ethics that protect human subjects of research. It might be a good idea to ask people's permission to include material in your portfolio if you think they may consider it sensitive. You may want to review your reflections to see if you are being too intimate about yourself or other people you have close relationships with. Anything published on the web can usually be found indefinitely and globally.
- Presenters: Sarah & Shani Talking Points: Attending this presentaton is no substitute to talking to your advisor about what they expect to see from you! We hope we've given you ideas and helped you see MORE ways of doing this. Do this for YOU... not because you have to. Don't forget, there are alot of places to get help at MSU... your peers, the college, the writing center. We hope you take time to review our portfolios and the other materials we've provided using some of this material as a lens.
