Hi Everyone!
After reading the posts from Sandra Porter, I have become intrigued about the possibilities associated with portfolio blogs. I believe that having students create and maintain a portfolio throughout a class (or even throughout their four years at South Western) could benefit them immensely. I have been impressed by some of the websites produced by students in other departments for performance-based classes, but was not sure how a similar project fit within our science courses. Having students blog about laboratory techniques they have encountered, as well as data analysis and results, could be a good starting place. I look forward to discussing these ideas with my colleagues and possibly coming up with a plan that would allow for a consistent experience for the students in several different courses.
