Subject: using eportfolios
Hello, HEDIR members. I am developing an e-portfolio template for health
education majors (either school or community) to use. Our university uses
Portfolio, a secure web site at the University of Minnesota (U of M) for saving,
organizing, viewing, and selectively sharing personal educational records. This
system is available to students and alumni for life. It can be changed at
anytime and shared with selected individuals. It supports documents and media
(movies, etc.). The link to the ePortfolio tool is https://portfolio.umn.edu/portfolio/index.jsp
Check it out, if you'd like.
I thought I'd design the template for communityhealth majors based on the seven
CHES competencies and I'm not sure what'll I'll do with school health as MN
Board of Teaching standards are not congruent with AAHE/NCATE.
My questions for you:
What have you done with portfolios?
What has worked? What hasn't?
What suggestions do you have as I move into this development?
Do you think electronic portfolio will replace paper? How soon?
Should we start adding artifacts at the freshman level or wait until
junior/senior year?
When should they be reviewed? By whom?
Just using HEDIR as a brainstorming tool. Thanks for your assistance. Georgia

Hello Hedir Land,
Given all the controversies on the news this days regarding right to die,
religion, moral issues and health issues, I am contemplating in developing an

some of you are teaching this type of course at your institution.
Would you mind sharing a syllabus with me?
Hope to see many of you at Chicago. Thanks,

CHHCS News Alert - March 30, 2005
Children Are Doing Better, But Only a Little, Index Reports:
The 2005 Index of Child Well-Being, an annual report prepared by the Foundation
for Child Development, finds that on some measures, including teen birth rates,
violent criminal activity, smoking, and illicit drug use, American children are
doing slightly better than they did in 1975, the base year for the index, but
the health domain continues to decline as the result of steadily rising levels
of obesity.
