Final Evaluation

In my portfolio there are some weaknesses and some strengths. My weakness in my portfolio is that I must add slight information on my two artifacts. I must also add another artifact, so that the portfolio would be better and because I could get higher grades. I must include more information about my self, so that the reader gets better information about me.
My strengths in my digital portfolio it that I have created new designs and imported some pictures, so that the portfolio will look attractive and nice-looking. I used different types of colors throughout the digital portfolio so that my digital portfolio would be eye-catching and gorgeous. I also added a picture at the top of my wiki which made it look cool. I changed some of my designs because I thought that inserting a lot of designs in my digital portfolio would be complicated and it will not look pretty, so I decided to reduce some of my designs. I also changed the colors of my digital portfolio because they were tedious and dull. I wanted them to be bright and colorful. All of these were my biggest and strongest strengths in my digital portfolio.
There were some strengths and weaknesses in my performance during this unit. My biggest strength in this unit is my blogger. This blogger helped me a lot through this unit. Everything I did through this unit was in my blog. I wrote reflections, evaluations and comments in the blog. This blog will help me a lot in the future and after, because I could refer back to it anytime and I could look at the work I did throughout this unit. This blog helped me keeping records of my information. I have really put a lot of time and effort in this blogger. My weakness through this uint is my “movie about me”. I didn’t really focus on it, because of my friends. When I asked them to video me, they were not paying attention and not focusing on me while I was talking in the video. So the video was mixed up a little. Also because I continued working on my digital portfolio and I postponed the movie till further time. I could change it working and focusing more on my video or I could shoot the movie again by asking one of my friends. This unit aligns with the area of interaction “Homo Faber” because it took our inventiveness and ingenuity from our minds by creating our own digital portfolio. It made us select our layouts, designs, contents, chose different colors and many more things to select. I have created this digital portfolio so that the readers could get more information about and know me better. I also created this digital portfolio so that I could record my information and also because it is a good way for me to present my work easily instead of writing it on the papers and documents.
This digital portfolio has a harsh impact on my friends and family because it is more beneficial to have an online portfolio, so our friends and family could read our information easily without any difficulties and it is more enhanced to read information on the online, instead of papers.
This unit is the is the most beneficial unit I had ever gone through because it taught it me a lot of vital information I had never knew before. I would like to thank the teacher a lot, because she really helped me a lot through this unit.
