Private and public reflections

When created, reflections are private and can be seen only by members of the relevant groups (ie the student and the evaluators). However, sometimes for some purposes, a student might want a reflection to be public. And sometimes students inadvertently make a reflection public (not easy to do). This movie shows how to make reflections public or private, or change from one to the other.

Student Competencies and Learning Outcomes

Student Competencies and Learning Outcomes

A. Foundational Understandings and Abilities

A1) Students will demonstrate understanding of basic principles, concepts, and terminology related to the creation, organization, management, access, and use of knowledge and information and will demonstrate the ability to apply them to practical problems.

Assessment of the reflections

5/9/07

As a library and information professional, you will need to be skilled at assessing your own learning and identifying additional things you need to know. We expect students, as they progress through SIRLS, to move from dependence on faculty assessment of their achievements to a realistic self-assessment of achievement. The competency reflections are the tools and opportunities for you to monitor your own learning and augment it as you see the need.

General Information

last altered 5/1/07

The electronic portfolios (ePortfolios) demonstrate professional, academic, and personal progress toward a Masters Degree in Library and Information Science.

The ePortfolios consist of two components a) a private collection of reflections and artifacts (known as the 'competency ePortfolio' or the 'reflections'), and b) a public collection of artifacts and narrative that might serve to showcase a student's knowledge, learning, and experience to future employers and others (known as the 'professional ePortfolio').

ePortfolio

Overview

The electronic portfolios (ePortfolios) demonstrate professional, academic, and personal progress toward a Masters Degree in Library and Information Science.

The ePortfolios consist of private collections of reflections and artifacts. They are part of the assessment of a student within SIRLS. They are private between the student and an evaluator. The evaluator will judge whether each reflection is satisfactory or not. And the student will need to produce 4 satisfactory reflections, as detailed below, to meet the School's ePortfolio requirement.
