Intro to Adobe Page

Explore Creating a Personalized Portfolio:

Students will create a personalized portfolio template that they can use to curate and reflect on their learning process and/or showcase the work they are proud of throughout the semester. Today’s lesson will be the beginning of a process that will be ongoing. 

  • What is a digital portfolio?
  • Explore some examples of Spark made portfolios.  MS/High School Examples.
  • After looking at the examples provided, explore the following questions with a partner and answer the questions below together:
    • What makes a good portfolio?
    • How might a portfolio be a reflection of my values and/or my best work?

How to Create a Personalize Portfolio:

In this section, you will open Adobe Spark PAGES for the first time and learn how to use the tool. 

How do I create my own Webpage?

Watch THIS  video on how to use Spark PAGE

Apply Your Learning:

Create a Digital Portfolio Using Adobe Spark

1) Make Your Thinking Visible and Share Your Work. 

You will create a template of what will become your digital portfolio for the semester. You can use this to share your process (by taking screenshots or screencasts of your in-progress work) and/or curate “final” pieces of work you want to share. 

Take 10 – 20  minutes to create the template for your digital portfolio.  

Because a portfolio can be very personal, it might change. Please include the following in your portfolio:

1) A Title with your Name and a meaningful picture (can be their own or one from the free photos)

2) An introduction to your learning goals for the semester. 

3) New content from the personal logo assignment. Add a reflection describing what you did and learned. 

2) Getting Started & Publishing Your Spark PAGE

Watch THIS short video tutorial on getting started with Page and how to publish your work with a link.

Share & Reflect:

Publish Your Creation For Feedback

Share your PAGE

Publishing your work and portfolios is crucial. We will use Padlet to publish your work where other students can review and comment. Your portfolios are meant to be a representation of a work in progress therefore, feedback is crucial to improve your creations.   

Reflect 

Take a moment to reflect on your creations after reviewing each other’s work. Use the following questions below and add your reflections on a post-it note and share in smaller groups.   

  1. How do you think your portfolio will help you improve as a learner this year? 
  2. What do you think will be important to share in your portfolio this year?
  3. What steps will you take to ensure you are responsible for your portfolio this year?

Class notes:

Hey, T-Wolves. If you have ever thought about giving back to your community and like working with younger students to help them succeed, apply to be a Heritage mentor at Sifton Elementary. Not only will you be a great role model for future Heritage students, but the time you invest is priceless and looks great on a resume or application for whatever is next for you. Come to room 578 for more details.

Publish Your Creation For Feedback

It is really important for you to be able to share your creations and receive feedback on your work so that you can feel proud and push your own thinking. Something really special happens when you are able to see each other’s work and comment on that work.

Reflect on Each Others Logos

Glance over each other’s creations in a “Gallery” walk. Look at each other’s creations and provide feedback:

  • What Glowed (worked)?
  • Where is some room for growth – provide specific ideas of how it can grow – this should be very practical advice.

Open your Google document from Tuesday, add your favorite personal logo and answer the following questions:

  • Does your logo use the requirements of the assignment?
  • What does the logo you created say about you?
  • What did you include in the logo to make it personal?
  • Is your logo design simple? Describe why.
  • Is your personal logo design authentic to who you are? Describe why.
  • Is your personal logo memorable and timeless? Describe why.

When you are finished creating a post log, download your favorite creation as a JPEG file and add it to the assignment and Padlet (link is found at Google classroom). You will use your logo design to create a brand in another activity.
