Digital+Portfolios

[|DSC00293.JPG] I use Digital Portfolios in my 8th grade science class. When teaching the Chemistry portion of my Alabama Course of Study, students created an element "Baby Book". Using PhotoStory 3, the students selected an element, and then corresponded the info. about that element to info. found in a baby book i.e. Atomic mass= Birth weight, Atomic Number= Birth Height, Chemical Symbol= Baby's nickname, etc. They added pictures and narration to bring the "book" to life. Here are some screen shotof the student produced work. The projects were a definite success, and I received alot of positive feedback from the students. I have attached a "screen shot" above. L.Berry
