Artifacts
for Portfolio’s and This Week
If you have been following this blog
or if you have read my previous entry about, making an introduction video and portfolio’s
you may recall me stating that my portfolio is a little bare. This was due to a
lack of artifacts to fill my portfolio; an artifact is a digital or physical document
that you can place in your portfolio. A good example of an artifact is the
introduction video that the Work Based Learning class made before starting the
development of the portfolio. I would link the video to this blog entry, unfortunately
though my partner never finished editing the video. Although I do not have my
introduction video, there are other types of artifacts that can be used to
develop your portfolio. Personally I believe a well written resume is essential
to a great portfolio. I believe that the resume give the employer a quick water-downed
version of your portfolio. After your resume should be document representing
and reinforcing what you claim to be in your resume.
This week we have been going over professionalism
and the proper way to act in a professional environment. Frist we went over how
to be responsible in a professional or business area and we reviewed the proper
method to go along if someone forgot their credit card at the cash register, or
if you over hear explicit conduct/content going on between two employees and it’s
not wanted by one of the two employees. For example if a customer has recently
purchase something at your cash register line and they forgot it, what would
you do? Well we established the morale dilemma on one hand you could take the
card and use it for yourself, however the social responsible thing to do is try
to let the person know before they leave or if it has been to long turn it in
to the office’s lost and found section of the story.
