Tonight I completed part II of my digital portfolios class at work. In years past, we’ve generated an interactive PowerPoint or Keynote Presentation. This time around, they wanted to try blogs.
First, I set up an example. I think using blog posts as individual artifact holders makes a lot of sense, and if your portfolio has domains (as ours do), you can use blog categories.
I think one of the benefits of this procedure is that your portfolio can be interactive! Yes, you can solicit comments from others. Not a bad thing. And individual pages in our WordPress-powered blogs can be used for more static content, like resumés, references, or awards.
