E Portfolios: A project for your college or
school
"I
always wondered why somebody doesn't do something about that. Then I
realized I was somebody."
– Lily Tomlin |
An Important Question: Why use professional Learn With Tech training if the
program is free?
Whether the program is free, or purchased is not really the important issue.
There are many programs available already installed on personal or school
computers. Most feel, as we do, that these, programs and technology itself is
underutilized.
Learn with tech assumes a greater goal than to introduce and teach a program.
Our attempt is to have the program work for you and your staff.
For example: Learn with tech will establish a naming convention for websites,
much like those that most organizations use with email (typically First Letter
of your first name followed by your last name @YOUR DOMAIN)
We teach what should NOT go on a website. For example personal information and
copyrighted materials.
Thus our goal is to have the E-Portfolio system utilized by staff and or
students, by your organization.
