More and more Humber faculty are being encouraged to create a teaching portfolio – a collection of documents and materials that describes a teacher’s teaching philosophy, summarizes their teaching performances, lists significant academic and professional accomplishments and highlights teaching highlights. Traditional hard copy portfolios are still very common but Humber faculty can also create rich multimedia portfolios using suitable ePortfolio software such as Weebly, WordPress and Google ePortfolio. This workshop is a follow-up to the Professional Development's ePortfolio workshops.

Register for this workshop and learn some of the basics of building an ePortfolio.

You’ve done a good job of conveying content to your students but have you engaged your students through reflection? This workshop will focus on how you can help students to understand and contextualize what they’ve learned into practical and applied scenarios.
