Instructions: Our initial portfolios will be setup on WordPress. This is for several reasons; a significant reason is the dominance of WordPress as a website engine. You have the option of using the free or self-hosting a site on your own hosting. I personally use but there are a number of choices. It is likely that this portfolio has the potential to grow into your professional portfolio so care should be taken with regard to design and professionalism. I strongly recommend you use “FirstNameLastName.com” as an URL since it is the most flexible and adaptable.
Your initial portfolio install should have the following pages and if this isnt your first ePortfolio class you should check your overall portfolio for content and update as needed:
- About You (a page that will highlight what you do for others and will grow to include your instructional design philosophy)
- Contact/Work with You page (a page that will at the minimum have a contact form)
- Blog (With a blog category and a portfolio category, you can do sub-categories under portfolio if youd like but at this point its not necessary)
