Final Evaluation

My portfolio was very good, but it hadsome strengths and some weaknesses. a clear weakness is that all my pages used docstoc, and nothing more. Docstoc is a program where documents can be uploaded, where they can then be embeded in my wiki so that the viewer can read them. This is very interestiong, but the fact that i used it for all my artifacts may seem montonous. I could hae used voice thread or other tools to help enhane the feel of my wiki, which is always a benefit.Also, my blog home page isnt as exceptional as i wanted it to be. A homepage is important, it helps give the viewer the first impression and overall feel of the website, so if its not attractive chances are people wont want to view the rest of the blog. These were the main weaknesses, but they dont have a very harsh effect as my wiki was good, in general terms.

Some clear strengths was the pages that were filled, and the fact tha each page had information that was relevant, and not just random pictures etc. good example is my personal statement, which wasnt required for the unit. however i did it becaused ifeel a person must be presonified ont ehir wiki, if not there isnt a real point. Another advantage or strength in my wiki is the use of videos. My wiki has the about me video which i believe turned out great, as it covered importanyt aspects of my life diligiantly. The other video is animoto, its easy to use and also povs effective as it adds the 'hip' in my wiki.


I believ i worked well this unit. i used my class tie efficiently and asked several carefully thoughout questions whic i was able to benefit from. I think the time i didnt use to my advantage was the filming time. My video is clearly mostly based at home, this is because my class time wasnt used to the best and i was therefore prone to doing a lot of filming at home. but i think what made me able to accomplish the filiming was my focus in class.

Homo faber basically means man-made, this portfolio relates to that. without the innovation required in homo faber, our modern day world wouldnt be the same, this wiki revolves around those guidelines. My wiki was made to help epople lear more about me, and have a better undertsand of my school and some personal hobbies etc. This portfolio was created for the world to see, and afetr that they will gain, which essentialy what homo faber does. My family enjoyed reading my portfolio, they were able to see my school life and how i porgressed. they also saw which artifacts i did wel and which could have been better.

Overall, it was fun making the portfolio, but what is even better is looking at it when its finally done.
