Some elements of my training as a professional have influenced my closeness to the topic of teaching and learning. Although I did not study pedagogy, I was very close to working as a professor at the university in my town. There, I had some ideas about teaching methods, such as the theory of Latin American psychologist David Ausubel, which maintains that learning is most effective when new knowledge is significantly related to the student's existing cognitive structure.
Through teaching practice, I experienced some pedagogical approaches and challenges in classrooms. As a teacher, I participated in continuing professional development programs such as workshops, conferences, and online courses to broaden and deepen my understanding of the teaching and learning process.
In the fall of 2024, I enters the Master of Education in Digital Learning (ADL). Advancing through these courses has been a UNIQUE experience. It has allowed me to interpret the vision of the natural world differently and adopt innovative and contextualized tools to create efficient and contemporary learning environments. It has helped me grow professionally and spiritually.
The relevance of working together and supporting each other on my Distance Learning team has been extraordinary.
This ePortfolios course has been a transformative experience that has trained me to select and present my work effectively. By creating this e-portfolio, I have brought together my achievements and deeply reflected on my personal and professional growth. This process has been instrumental in helping me develop a unique voice, presenting my skills and experiences coherently and engagingly. This ePortfolio represents my learning journey and demonstrates my ability to adapt and evolve in an ever-changing environment.
Evolution of My ePortfolio
I started this journey with ePortfolios without a clear vision of an ePortfolio and why I should have one. Today, I am deeply excited to be able to share a powerful tool that everyone who has something to show the world to improve it should have. Here, I show you my evolution over time. I adapted it to represent my educational experiences and personal development as I progressed. I invite you to explore it, hoping you find something that inspires and motivates you to make it yours if you haven't already in my ePortfolio.

ePortfolio Redesign Check-in
I learned about “The ePortfolio” for the first time in EDLD 5302 Educational Technology Concepts. From that moment on, a door to creation, innovation, and authenticity was opened that captured my full attention. At first, I was reluctant to accept the challenge. I spent long hours and countless days researching how to do something that, in my eyes, was almost impossible. Then, due to urgent needs, I started creating my first homepage. At that moment, I felt a deep emotion. Although moments of despair and anguish due to the helplessness of ignorance constantly invaded the space, I HAD ALREADY PREPARED my first page on a website!
The EDLD 5303 course has given me a Why? Why do you need to have one? Should you have an ePortfolio? The quality of the elements included, the structured analysis, and the visual style have gradually improved in each section of the work and study. While I continue in this process of constant discovery, I focus on learning and finding my thoughts and feeling proud that what I have created reflects my OWN SELF.
