    You need a portfolio for two reasons: to reflect well and look good. Reflection Selecting work to go into a portfolio is a metacognitive process that requires you to compare what you have actually accomplished with the desired end. I would like students to do this more frequently than the end of each grading period, and I plan to make portfolio updating at least a biweekly process. To this end, I've created a whole page within my newly revamped site template for this reflective process (hint: this should also be a gold mine for Assessment of Student Work "time lapse artifacts" for me to show my fitness as an educator). I want students to see their progress in stages.

  • And in the event a school can’t find a nearby community that speaks that language, they will contact a consulate, embassy or school system in that country to find an assessment that will give students the opportunity to demonstrate that proficiency, he said.

      Can't the STAMP, AAPPL or an AP exam suffice?
  • Offering these awards and the seal gives students something to strive for, Garcia said, because it will formally acknowledge their bilingual skills.
  • Students can receive “pathway awards” in third, fifth and eighth grade if they demonstrate skills in two or more languages and are on the path to earning a seal at the end of high school.

      This could be  something for our elementary and middle school dual language students.

  • “Students go through programs where they basically study in two languages, however, they graduate like everyone else and there’s not really a recognition of that,”
  • “This would help existing (dual language) programs give students the recognition they deserve because many of them have been in a program for many years working on these proficiencies…it gives students a reason to become more proficient than just being able to order at a restaurant in French.”
  • mployers and colleges will see the seal and know that student’s bilingual abilities are formally recognized. It gives students a competitive edge.
  • here are nearly 82,000 unfilled jobs nationwide that require bilingual speakers.
  • “(The seal) makes students highly marketable and prepared for any type of opportunity, college or career,”

    "Digital Storytelling is the modern expression of the ancient art of storytelling. Throughout history, storytelling has been used to share knowledge, wisdom, and values. Stories have taken many different forms. Stories have been adapted to each successive medium that has emerged, from the circle of the campfire to the silver screen, and now the computer screen."
