Today’s class on instructional design helped me to gain a better understanding of how to develop curriculum. Instructional design practices focus on the desired learning outcomes first and then develops instructional lessons that support the student’s acquisition of the intended learning outcomes. I was able to focus my attention on the ADDIE model of instruction design. I liked how this model was set up in a linear way that was easy to follow. I tend to gravitate toward instructional practices that are developed in a linear structure, so I can see myself embracing the ADDIE model of instructional design in my classroom.

I found today’s lesson relating to the different levels of an ePortfolio to be very interesting because I could easily see people creating ePortfolios that never make it past level one. It is important for all educators to see the importance of level two and three. An ePortfolio can only be a learning experience if students are taken to levels two and three. Personal reflections, peer feedback, presenting, and rubric assessments are only a few of the key components to level two and three that allow for students to grow educationally and personally through the ePortfolio process. Sticking purely to level one cuts so many crucial learning experiences that all students would benefit from.
I thought that todays class was very enlightening. I really enjoyed learning about all of the different formats to create websites and e-portfolios. My group worked on exploring and presenting about Google Classroom, Ido not plan on using this for my e-portfolio, but I am incredibly excited about using it I'm my classroom to assign template passed individual and group projects for my students to complete. Working through creating my Weebly was also very eye opening because it has been a long time since I have played with Weebly. I look forward to possibly implementing an e-portfolio with my 3rd graders this year.
