Uses of e-portfolios: Each portfolio has a different function. Here are some summaries.
(i)Assessment portfolios - used in assessment purposes and are usually organised into different categories. For example, a student may organise their work into different categories. For example, a student may organise their work into the candidates' products, evaluations, photographs, video recordings, etc. However, assessment portfolios differ and vary according to the owners course, course advisor and/or lecturer.
(ii)Showcase portfolios - Portfolios where individual's achievements are displayed, also showing their best work on evaluations of their own work. These portfolios are usually by artists and architects.
Showcase portfolios may be used ofr many purposes, like introducing yourself to other employers, committees, sponsors etc.
(iii) Development portfolio - These portfolios are useful fr keeping track of things. A personal development plan is also another term for this portfolio. Portfolios as such can act as a reminder. Usually recorded on a table making things easier for the person to follow through and keep themselves updated on their own work.
(iv) Reflective portfolio - Used for monitoring one's development. The owner evaluates themself and their work when having completed something. Owners are usually asked to reflect on their achievements, failures, goals, pointing ou strengths and weaknesses and how to improve on each aspect of their work if the work was to be repeated.

My Proposal
What are you going to do and why?
I am going to research on cops and the use of taser guns. How and why they decided to introduce taser guns into the country. How it will effect criminals' bodies, anatomically and how it will effect the country (NZ) financially. I will also try and contrast pepper sprays and taser guns.
What digital assests are you going to use and why?
Still undecided, but I'm thinking of using blogs and youtube clips about this.
What benefits might you get out of this (future implications)?
Because I am going into the police after completing this course, researching and studying the background of what has been going on inside the NZ police force might help me with gaining more knowledge and to be ahead with the theoretical part.
