framework; the resources available (hardware,
software, level
of technology skills). Select the appropriate
level/technology

portfolio
artifacts based on purpose/
audience/goals. Interject personality into
the portfolio
design by using appropriate multimedia to add style
and individuality
to the portfolio.

represent
achievement of standards/goals. Reflect on
why artifacts
were selected, indicating meaning and value to the
portfolio.

(direction).

artifacts. Create
