1. Select the application you wish to use for your portfolio. There are teaching portfolio programs available but please check that any subscription service allows you to download your work should you choose to end the subscription. Standard programs such as word are equally as effective.
2. Review your artefacts collected over your placement experiences. Choose 2 artefacts as evidence of your ability to meet each graduate standard. Remember artefacts are how you make visible your thinking and experiences. Make sure to include a variety of types of evidence to show the breadth of your ability. Display work with B-2 and 3-5-year-olds.
3. Each artefact should be accompanied by a short description describing what is made visible through the artefact and how it connects to your Personal Philosophy and the APST.
4. Aesthetics and professionalism are important. Make your portfolio easy to read and navigate. Layout your portfolio with plenty of clear space, headings related to the standards, table of contents, subheadings to guide readers. It is better to include more pages than to cram information into less pages.

EXAMPLE

There is a Portfolio PowerPoint that outlines the structure to follow for this assessment. 

1. Include a title page, table of contents, your early childhood focused resume, your philosophy statement, and discussion and artefacts for each of the seven teaching standards.
2. There is no need to provide evidence for each of the sub-standards for this task, however, you can refer to the sub-standards that are evident in your artefacts.
3. Make sure to use Harvard Style for any citations and referencing as well as correct spelling and grammar throughout Assessment 2.
