This document provides advice on using a portfolio to guide job interviews. It recommends that a portfolio should show what the applicant personally contributed and why, through projects that represent their skills and community involvement rather than being a static snapshot. Personal projects are acceptable but the portfolio should not include work the applicant does not want to discuss. The portfolio is an important tool that represents the applicant's skills and experience, not needing to be a perfect showcase.

MVP development from software developer perspective
The document discusses what a minimum viable product (MVP) is and why and how to build one. It defines an MVP as the simplest version of a product that allows customers to be tested with minimum effort. Building an MVP focuses development on the core idea, allows for early testing and feedback, takes less time and resources. The document provides tips for building an MVP such as building less features, fixing budgets/time while flexing scope, releasing something daily, and breaking work into small tasks. Examples of successful MVPs from companies like Facebook, Dropbox, Amazon are also included.

Learning in the Age of Knowledge on Demand
The London Black Cab driver's exam, "The Knowledge of the Streets and Monuments of London," is one of the most difficult exams in the world, requiring drivers to become a human GPS. With today's tools, the smartphone and the right app turns anyone into the equivalent of a human GPS. I've been asking myself how this concept applies to the field of online learning, particularly in my own field of programming and related IT skills. How should we rethink learning in the age of knowledge on demand? My keynote at the EdCrunch conference in Moscow on October 1, 2019. As always, download the PPT to read the detailed script in the speaker notes below each slide.

Lessons Learned Working Apart
I've spent most of my career as part of a team working in an office, making the web a little better each day. When starting my own company, however, one of my goals was to find ways to work with the people I looked up to… who had their own separate offices in different companies spread out all over the world. In order to get started, I had to think differently about a lot of things: my day, my network, my goals, and how I communicate. I've found that working together across the internets has a lot more to do with the ability to share a vision, and a lot less to do with which is the best digital video conference service.

Tracy Penny Light, CIRCLe 2018
This document discusses learning through assessment and the future of ePortfolios. It explores where learning is occurring, who is conducting assessments and how assessment is defined by stakeholders. It examines whether learning is the key focus of assessments, who defines evidence of learning, and whether ePortfolios are the only source of evidence used in assessments.
Fred Cutler, CIRCLe 2018
This document discusses plans to create an eportfolio service called ubcarts.ca for all students in the Faculty of Arts at UBC. The goal is to have 20,020 eportfolios created by 2020/20,020 students without any incentives. The challenges mentioned are creating some standardization for support while also allowing customization for student ownership. Key features of the ubcarts.ca design include using Wordpress, custom post types called "Activities" that can be categorized and set publicly or privately, and custom collections. Marketing the service to students is noted as a challenge since the benefits may not be obvious to students.
Meghan and Kate, CIRCLe 2018
Meghan Aubé and Kate Stewart discuss connecting the dots between experiential learning, e-portfolios, and reflection. They explore how e-portfolios can support diverse learners by allowing them to document their experiences, reflect on their learning, and engage with others. The authors examine how e-portfolios reflect the ethos of experiential learning by encouraging learners to do, make, and reflect as part of building their social identity and sharing artifacts from their learning experiences.
Hugh Knapp, CIRCLe 2018
Hugh Knapp discusses translating academic capital to professional capital through the use of a portfolio. The document outlines an agenda to discuss Knapp's portfolio, assumptions about portfolios, and what portfolios can be. Knapp suggests portfolios showcase learning processes, assignments completed in groups, and include actionable tasks like letters to demonstrate competencies to various audiences in a digital format.
Duncan McHugh, CIRCLe 2018
Students were assigned podcast projects during a course to encourage effective use of technology both during and after the course. The projects involved using Streeter to record audio, Voicer to edit recordings, working in groups to develop draft stories, and creating final podcasts with reflections. Having creative freedom opened up new project ideas for students and helped them feel at ease despite deadline stress.
Siobhan McPhee, CIRCLe 2018
Dr. Siobhán McPhee has explored using open source textbooks and various educational technologies like AR-VR, blogs, e-portfolios, and wikis in her teaching. She tried using blogs for student assessment in her GEOG 352 course but found it was not effective. She is interested in better integrating educational technologies to improve student engagement and finding projects that get students to effectively use technologies both during and after courses. Her focus is on connections between technology, curriculum, pedagogy, and life outside of academia.
Christina Hendricks, CIRCLe 2018
Christina Hendricks questions whether she belongs on a panel about student portfolios, as she has not explicitly asked students in her courses to create portfolios. However, she notes that some student work she has assigned, like blogs and reflective writing in her Arts One Open course, could be considered portfolios as they document and integrate student learning. She discusses what counts as an eportfolio, including documenting intellectual, affective, and social development through products and processes that are owned and controlled by students. Hendricks also shares examples of her own blogs and portfolios before concluding with some benefits and challenges of portfolios, such as publicity, reflection, and issues of ownership and control.
Christa Yeung, CIRCLe 2018
Christa has been involved with ePortfolios since fall 2016 through her GIS coursework and creating videos encouraging students to make ePortfolios. She was named the 2016/17 Arts Student ePortfolio of the Year and speaks to students about ePortfolios. EPortfolios capture opportunities for reflection that other forms may not through both textual and visual communication as well as presenting work to peers, employers, and communities. Students can use ePortfolios critically and reflexively by choosing who they want their work to matter to based on learning goals, employment goals, and building a well-rounded personal profile including courses, extracurriculars, and skills.
Christine D'Onofrio, CIRCLe 2018
This document summarizes the learning portfolio assignment that Christine D'Onofrio implemented in her VISA 110: Introduction to Digital Visual Art course over two years. The initial goals of the assignment were to promote transformative learning, distinguish disciplinary methods, and cultivate student mindfulness of online self-representation. Based on student feedback, D'Onofrio realized she needed to refocus the assignment from a showcase portfolio to emphasize reflection on learning. She made changes like having students use the university platform and adding an assignment for students to generate research questions.
Capilano University’s ePortfolio Project
Over 2,200 students at Capilano University are using ePortfolios to showcase their work. The university introduced ePortfolios to help students in the Liberal Studies program integrate and showcase their learning over multiple years. Peer mentors provide 15 hours per week of drop-in support for students using ePortfolios. In the future, the university aims to create a portfolio showcase event and develop credit-bearing portfolio courses.
CIRCLe 2018 Keynote Address by Tracy Penny Light
This document discusses ePortfolios and their role in fostering lifelong learning. It outlines the values of ePortfolios, including privileging the learner experience, making connections between learning experiences, and providing authentic evidence of learning. EPortfolios are presented as a way to model the learning process, document 21st century skills, and highlight a learner's pathway. When integrated into learning design and used to encourage reflection, ePortfolios can foster skill development and lifelong learning by giving learners opportunities to receive feedback and chart their own progress. The document argues that ePortfolios, when supported by an institution, can help align learning outcomes, strategies, and effective assessment across an organization.
