The online electronic online
portfolio is your final evaluation which in many other courses would be a
pencil and paper exam.
As a senior student this portfolio may also be of
use for job application or application to a post secondary institute. It
should become a component of your resume.
Your portfolios can be constructed using HTML or FrontPage
(or both as is usually the case) and posted on a server such as
Bravehost or your own URL.
Tables should be used along with your own web components such as banners,
digital photographs custom backgrounds, Gif animations Flash, interactive components etc.
In other words use the skill that you have developed to produce a graduate level web based portfolio
.
You might also want to include work from previous years or even your own
personal digital creations.
You are incouraged to include digital or digitized works from other courses or that you have done for fun or other reasons.
You will save your portfolio files to your JumpDrive for safe keeping as well as the G drive at school just in case one system fails. Don't keep your eggs in one basket!
