Creating Digital Portfolios Worthy
of the Time and Effort
Module Eight - Example Four - Numeracy
Using the unit approach offers an economy of effort that matches the working life of teachers while collecting work that is representative of student capacities.An extensive study of infant mortality in African nations would lead to the creation of many digital artifacts such as cluster diagrams, statistical analyses and charts. These might then lead to "white papers" arguing the best ways to address the challenge of saving children's lives.
Give this brief activity a try and note the digital artifacts that result from your work.
