C. Impact
This portfolio will be used in order to meet the requirements for the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers. I will use this portfolio as a tool in my classroom. It demonstrates that I have mastered many of the basic skills needed in order to work with and give instructions to use technology. This portfolio demonstrates that I have the skills to construct web pages, edit video, work a camcorder, work a scanner, work with various software programs including Microsoft Publisher, Microsoft Power Point, and many other devices and programs mentioned through out the portfolio.

D. Alignment
This advanced technology portfolio demonstrates that I have a sound understanding of technology concepts, operations, and functions. It shows that I have obtained the skills needed to stay current with the latest technologies. The rationales for each artifact include ideas on how I plan to use the artifact or a similar lesson in my classroom. The technology portfolio is on going. I hope to add more artifacts as my career progresses. Because of this fact, it will demonstrate continual growth and development in technology. (Technology Standard I A) (Technology Standard II A)
