Derived from two years of research and development by faculty and students, this model builds upon the reflective model for developmental portfolios and extends it to a relational model that uses RapidWeaver as the student's construction platform. This model, and RapidWeaver in general, is a tool + method that teacher education students and faculty can CHOOSE to use for their required portfolio. We highly recommend it for students and faculty new to web-based digital portfolios or for students who want to convert their existing portfolio quickly using a modern, multimedia construction method.
