Back to TWT Portfolio Process

There are a variety of ways to organize the pages a professional portfolio since it is a very individualized creation. However, we've included some ideas to help students get started.

Standalone TWT Portfolio

This organization separates out the TWT Certificate portfolio from other items you may have. The portfolio should include a "home page" linking to a teaching philosophy, a reflective page on what you have learned and your portfolio samples.

Samples should include examples of class presentations, online resources, student communication, multimedia technology, and use of technology for teaching innovation. Below is a possible concept map image and text outline for a portfolio.

Combinining TWT Portfolio with other Web Pages

If you wish to post your TWT portfolio along with other Web pages reflecting your research or teaching interests and/or hobbies, then it is recommended that you make the portfolio a distinct section in your Web site. Below are some sample organization schemes for either a research-oriented site or for an instructor site.

Combination of Research and Teaching Portfolio

This organization scheme combines a professional researcher Web page with a teaching portfolio section. The home page leads to a C.V., a page on research interests, a page on extracurricular interests and then the teaching portfolio containing a teaching philosophy and pages on samples presented for the Teaching with Technology Certificate.

Combination of Instructor Home Page and Teaching Portfolio

This organization scheme combines a professional researcher Web page with a teaching portfolio section. The Web page leads to a teaching resume, a page on teaching awards and achievements, a page on extracurricular interests and then the teaching portfolio containing a teaching philosophy and pages on samples presented for the Teaching with Technology Certificate.
