ISUComm Sites for Students
Welcome! Here you can find videos designed to introduce you to ISUComm Sites. This is a digital platform for developing and showcasing your work.
Introduction
This video introduces you to what ISUComm sites are, how they are used in ENGL 150 and 250, and a vision for each site's potential beyond those courses.
The idea here is that it is important to engage and find value in your site.
Additionally, though ePortfolio sites are a course completion requirement, you should consider them as more than just an assignment.
Sites may help you to acquire professional employment or that dream job in the future by showcasing your work.
The Basics
This video focuses on helping you access your site, and introduces you to the interface, dashboard, utilities, and capabilities of the site, and what it enables in terms of production. This video is highly modularized so you can watch it all, or individual clips that pertain to specific features (available by video submenus). Additionally, this video discusses the most challenging issue you are likely to face while working with your site, adding media and embedding documents.
Showcasing WOVE
This video explains how the ePortfolio assignment (as found in 150 and 250) can be completed effectively and efficiently. This video models meeting specific requirements of the ePortfolio and provides various options for doing this. Specifically, we focus here on how to showcase WOVE communications powerfully, and emphasize specific skills. In the processes, this video shows a couple of site models for how to arrange the components of the ePortfolio assignment.
