Student-Led Conferences & e-Portfolio
Why do them?
My students created their Google Site e-Portfolio site to showcase their work. This e-Portfolio was shared with parents during their student-led conference in the spring. Some sample pages included in their Google Site:
- student accountability / responsibility
- motivates students
- students reflect on a deeper level - they know their strengths and weaknesses
- more self-confident
- enthusiastic about their work
- increases parent involvement
