Please use the Portfolio
Diagram below as a reference to terms.
The Presentation Portfolio represents the processes, products, and
research that characterize your theoretical and practical achievements. For
clarity, it is separated into three sections, Process, Product, and Showcase.
Each section is described below.
The
Process section of the Presentation Portfolio establishes the "Image of the
Owner".
It
should contain a Vita with the following elements.
Resume
Description
of previous and current teaching and administrative assignments
Professional goals including a reflection of how they have changed over time – and particularly since the beginning of this program.
It should contain Evidence of Effective Teaching.
Examples of Evidence of Effective Teaching:
Teaching
units (e.g.,: teaching unit on immigration, WebQuest, database unit on
animals)
Integrated
activities
Audio
tapes
Student
products
Professional
awards (ie: Teacher of the Year, Rotary Club award)
Community
involvement
More
to be discussed in class sessions
Note: These examples
should not duplicate those in the “Product” section of the portfolio.
The Product section must contain artifacts that illustrate purpose, audience, evidence and reflection.

There
should be no fewer than four illustrative pieces as evidence of breadth and
depth. Breadth and depth must contain relevant aspects of instructional strategies,

single artifact need not necessarily address all four of the aspects above,
but collectively, the Product section must illustrate the candidate's practical
and theoretical focus on strategies, applications, staff development and multicultural
issues.
If
an artifact is a collaborative team product, describe the roles and
contributions of each member of the team. The
description should describe each stage of the product development: research,
writing, teaching, data gathering, reflection and revision.
This section includes the action research project. It must include the following:
