Quotes from the episode

An ePortfolio is basically a curated collection of student work. It includes reflection, and it’s usually across the college experience.
-Lynn Meade

Anytime I teach portfolios, it’s really big that we talk about audience and purpose. Who is your audience and what is your purpose?
-Lynn Meade

There’s something particularly lovely about seeing student or faculty members’ written comments about my work. Both the critiques and those comments that build me up, and how very powerful they are, and how much they mean to me.
-Lynn Meade

It’s not about the tech. The most important thing is, am I writing? Am I able to think about myself? Am I able to reflect about myself?
-Lynn Meade
