Have a personalized learning experience Connect the dots of your learning (academics, career, travel, volunteering, life, goals)

Be the judge of your own work

Gain awareness of your own progress

Work with technology

GENERAL TIPS

SELECT ONLY THE BEST OF YOUR WORK AND EXPERIENCES

Your eportfolio needs to display your best work, not all of it. Be selective and choose the

artifacts and experiences that best represent your skills, knowledge, and interests.

DO NOT LIMIT YOURSELF TO ACADEMICS OR INTERNATIONAL ACTIVITIES

Show yourself as the well-rounded person you are. Include your volunteer work, artisticskills (music, photography), and general interests.

CHECK YOUR GRAMMAR AND WATCH FOR TYPOS

Wix does not have a built in spell checker. You MUST write the text in a word processorand then copy and paste it in Wix.

MAKE YOUR EPORTFOLIO VISUALLY APPEALING

Add images and videos featuring your work. Make sure that your eportfolio invites othersto browse and read about your work.

KEEP IT PROFESSIONAL

Unlike other social media (Facebook, Instagram), your eportfolio is a formalrepresentation of who you are. Do not include anything you would not want an employeror professor to know about you.

REFLECT

Your eportfolio needs to demonstrate your global knowledge, intercultural competence,and your ability to think critically. Your posted reflections will allow others to see yourmultifaceted talents and abilities. When you write your essays consider including two orthree of the following questions:

What did you do? Quantify your experience. How long was it? How many times didyou engage in this experience?

What did you learn? What about this experience was the most useful to you?

What would you recommend to others about getting involved in this program? Whatsuggestions would you offer?

What area of your life was strengthened or improved by this program/experience? List the ways in which you have grown as a result of this experience/ program

What problems did you encounter? How did you overcome them?

What risks did you take?

What experience in this program demonstrated your strengths and talents? Why?(Adapted from by Nancy Wozniak and Sourav Tamang, in Penny Light, T., Chen, H., & Ittelson, J. (2012).Documenting Learning with ePortfolios. Jossey-Bass, 77-78).
