Change Project - Remote Learning Portfolio How-To Video

Click here to view my how-to video; teaching parents how to use some of the features of the Google Slides Digital Portfolio. I created this video using a screen casting feature on WeVideo. I created this video because parents were very stressed out and did not know how to add work to their child's portfolio.

He is always seeking out opportunities to share out the wonderful things happenin...

Vision Artifact

For my vision artifact, I decided to create a video using WeVideo. The video demonstrates some of the key beliefs of the Green Mountain STEAM Academy.

Engaging with the resources in Modules 13 and 14 helped me to understand that your vision is where you want to be and what you want to achieve, where your mission is what you do.
