ePortfolios at Virginia Tech (US) (Allison Miller bookmarked this item)
This page overviews the types of projects that Virginia Techs ePortfolio Initiatives have helped to develop. This page is not exhaustive of all portfolio efforts at Virginia Tech. Additionally, all portfolios are essentially reflective processes, so even these gallery exhibits are continuous works in progress, which means they are under constant revision.

If you are not suffering from a color vision deficiency it is very hard to imagine how it looks like to be colorblind. The Color BLIndness Simulator can close this gap for you.

Yes, email notifications should (and will) happen in the next release which will include the bookmarks page. See Nick's comment below: We need to get the page in that displays the details of a resource (ie, all the comments), so we have something for the email to link to. Otherwise we have to just link to the person?s profile page, and if they read the email a day or so after the comment is received then it may not be displayed on the first page of their profile anymore. Hope that makes sense - thanks again for your feedback, we need as much of it as we can :)

Hi Allison - thanks for popping in. Any items you comment on will become part of your What's been Happening feed and anybody following you will also see your comment as part of your activity. Also you can comment on somebody else's comment - or your own comment. In the next release you will see these comments on items as part of a bookmarks page where you can add, edit and organise your stuff.

Hi Allison - we have a released a new commenting feature here in me.edu.au I would be interested to see what you think and how you might be able to use it. It is the first release of many down the Social Bookmark path :) Any feedback you have would be greatly welcomed!

Allison, I made it to edna. Grace, Simon, et al told me I should try again, so I did. It is everything I imagined. I hope you will be my colleague here. I always enjoy your humor and great ideas on education on Twitter. Remember, I am n2teaching.

Hi Allison - is there a group created for the 2008 innovation projects. I am just getting into this ME thing. Pru helped me and I am loving it.

Hello Allison I've just created a new edna group called Blogging Corner, for those of us a little down the track, or just starting out, or really experienced. I believe we all have lots to share. http://www.groups.edna.edu.au/course/view.php?id=1862

Hi Allison, The entries in your feed from communities should correspond to things that are happening in communities attached to your interests. At the moment you only have "Twitter" listed, so you should only receive stuff from that community. In the next release (due in a week or two) we'll add the ability to page through your view so you won't miss things people have done.

Sorry Alison - I probably have an account but going mouldy from lack of use. I am scared of it taking over my life. Enjoying your stream though:) Thanks
