Customized Digital Portfolio site

With the assistance of the JHU Center for Technology in Education, our IGERT Program now has a customized Digital Portfolio (DP) site which clearly defines competency areas related to our interdisciplinary vision of the Program. The DP system is a widely accepted tool, and because the software is a series of web-based templates it is user-friendly and will furnish each Trainee with the ability to efficiently track professional development and achievements. With the launching of the DP system, Trainees now have a safe and secure method for sharing their work with IGERT personnel, advisors, program evaluators, peers, and prospective employers. JHU will maintain these DP’s for at least 10 years beyond graduation, allowing IGERT alumni to add information or view the archives as they continue their careers. All 5 IGERT trainees were instructed on DP’s in late March, and they plan to have their first versions of individual portfolios in place by June 1, 2009.
