An ePortfolio is a fairly new concept to me. I don’t create artwork, I don’t write for a living, and I don’t particularly have any types of aspirations to maintain an item like this outside of a school setting. Don’t misunderstand, I am not apathetic towards the idea, but it does not align with my goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wikipedia defines an ePortfolio (in an education-based setting) as a “collection of a students’ work that can advance learning by providing a way for them to organize, archive, and display work.” To put it as simply as I can, it’s a way to showcase your talent, or your hard work. Outside of an education setting, an ePortfolio can be used to document a personal journey, or a transformation in much the same way a diary or a journal can. In a professional setting, it can be used to provide potential employers with more information about you and the work you do. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" An ePortfolio is a fairly new concept to me.

I think if were I to continue to use an ePortfolio in future, I’d use it to affirm the work that I do, and bring both more public awareness to the increasing number of environmental issues we face as a species, as well as provide the conclusive scientific data that I’ve gathered in the course of my work to back up these ideas. I am a very passionate person when it comes to environmental conservation, and while social media sites like Facebook and Twitter allow you to share your thoughts, you don’t have anything similar to an ePortfolio to assist you. I mean, it’s a collection<\/em>. In my case, I’d use it as a collection of thoughts and facts, I suppose.
