E-PORTFOLIO
In today world, technology has become part and parcel of our lives and so, there is no way teachers and students can shy away from it. This ePortfolio highlights digital technologies that can be used to support teaching and learning.
WHY I CHOOSE WIX AS MY PORTFOLIO CREATING TOOL
This ePortfolio was built using Wix. This tool was chosen among others (Google Sites, Weebly and WordPress) for the following reasons:
1). It is very easy to use because it is a drag-and-drop tool.
2). It's editing tool is very friendly.
3). Wix template designs look more professional than other designs. Being professionally built out already, one only needs to just customize it according to ones need.
3). Wix provides a variety of design selections. All one has to do is to select the best design that suites ones purpose.
WHAT I WANT THIS PORTFOLIO TO ACHIEVE
I built this portfolio to model digital technologies that can be used to support teaching and learning.
