Yes, we talked portfolios in the lecture, we were guided through young Gemma's (a girl on a digital video showed to us during a lecture) ePortfolio as an example for the beginning of the capacity of what ePortfolio can do. We saw video images of her talking to the class during a session called News. It was interesting, she managed to ramble on yet still be engaging. The class in the video whom she was talking to, in the foreground, was also clearly interested, this could be noted via the questions they asked, "What colour did your sister get?" referring to some gizmo she was displaying.
I left with a question! Due to the scope of the curriculum is the ePortfolio going to be enough to cover it?
In the workshop we are now speaking about the application process. What to say and what not to say.
One big yes, show the panel things like your ePortfolio.
A big no, don't give out referee details of someone who doesn't like you, especially to the panel.
Another yes, look over and look over and look over your resume, you may think it's complete, but surely enough a comma will be missing or capital letter.
A big no, don't be late, nothing's worse.
A yes, dress appropriately, dress to compliment the school. More progressive schools may not require a suit, or they may, find out.
Do not smoke in your car on the way to the interview, you will stink and cause discomfort for the panel, it will be a negative experience from the word go!
Always have a question and shake hands firmly!
