By documenting my projects, philosophies, and instructional strategies, I can actually see my evolution as an educator and make intentional plans for improvement. The ePortfolio pushes me to think critically about my teaching practices and connect them to the core principles outlined in my Learning Manifesto ownership, choice, and authentic learning.

It demonstrates my ability to integrate technology, lead initiatives, and foster student-centered environments.

My ePortfolio doesn’t just tell others what I do it shows how I apply innovation and reflection to improve student engagement and outcomes.

, this collection reflects my readiness and adaptability in a constantly evolving field. It captures my authentic voice and demonstrates my ongoing commitment to growth. Ultimately, my ePortfolio is not just a requirement it’s a professional and personal investment in the educator I am continually becoming.
