HOW
TO APPROACH TASKS/DISCUSSIONS
|
When formulating answers to the various tasks
or contributing to a discussion, the following three steps should always
be included:
-
DESCRIBE what you did to accomplish the task AND
what you hope to achieve (your goal)
-
ANALYZE the procedure or method you chose to work
towards your goal
-
REFLECT on the results (were you successful in reaching
your goal--why? if not, why not?)
ALL ANSWERS SHOULD BE ANALYTICAL
AND REFLECTIVE IN NATURE!

FINAL
TELI PORTFOLIO
|
You will be creating an "ELECTRONIC PORTFOLIO"
(i.e., your own portfolio website) as your final product for the TELI course.
We are asking you to proceed as you did when you created a website for
Task 11 in Exploration 5--i.e., you will upload the website to the same
server. Then you will simply submit the URL for your electronic portfolio
to us (see Exploration 7, Section V for submission instructions.
No uploading to the TELI site will be necessary! This will be a big
help to those of you who are considering applying for National
Board Certification since you can use the TELI portfolio as a model
for the portfolio you must submit to the National Board! Even if
you're not considering national certification, you'll still be able to
use a more expanded form of your electronic portfolio to promote your German
program! See sample teacher electronic portfolios below!
You should submit the URL for your final
portfolio by March 17th at the latest!
THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS!
YOUR TELI ELECTRONIC PORTFOLIO
SHOULD INCLUDE:
-
A written self-assessment (5 or more pages; double-spaced)
of your development as a teacher of German who has acquired expertise in
using Internet resources in German instruction, and who is now able to
assess the value of the Internet as an instructional tool. In addition,
we would like you to include at least four specific examples
from different explorations that illustrate clearly HOW and WHAT
you've learned from other TELI participants as the course progressed.
-
Materials developed during the course such as
worksheets, web pages, evaluation forms, standards-based thematic units,
etc., AND answers to tasks or contributions to the discussions that
you feel best demonstrate the level of expertise you have acquired, and
illustrate clearly how you have developed as a serious practioner who is
able to assess the value of the Internet as an instructional tool.
These answers to tasks or contributions to discussions can be copied from
your JOURNAL.

Below
are some examples of electronic portfolios. Note that your portfolio
will contain different materials and perhaps be arranged differently --
these are just examples for you to peruse!
