Implementing ePortfolios with Google Apps

Attended a Technology Integrator meeting with the TIs from the SAU.  Great resource.  Just learned about this script as a possible tool to setup ePortfolios.  

Here is the link to Josh Malloy’s script for distributing eportfolio sites http://www.veriapt.com/presentations/iewga

Using online Digital Timeline Tools

Creating a timeline can be fun and time consuming.  Doing it on large sheets of paper can be frustrating.  I recommend trying out a few different online Digital Timeline tools.  I have created a list below for you to try.

Tiki-Toki  

Tiki-Toki's free account lets you create a fully-functional timeline that you can share with friends and 
colleagues.  You have to create an account to access the free tool. As a student you can sign up and 
create and save just one timeline.

Brochure Template

Using a Brochure Template.  To create a brochure, often times you will try to start fresh and begin by formatting a word document.  Unless you are proficient with the formatting tools of your application, I recommend using a template and saving yourself the time necessary to setup the tri-fold brochure.

The link below provides you access to a document template that contains the Tri-fold formatting setup.  You will need to replace the existing text with your own text, replace the existing images with your images.  Save the document to your repository (on the U:drive) so you can go back and edit.  Name the file 08COLF-80n-First Last.  (e.g. 08COLF-802-Jane Doe)
