Portfolio of Academic and Professional Achievements for Teachers

In this VUCA World (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) and with the growing need for having a Digital Identify for professionals, it is most important that a digital profile of the teacher is created by the teacher themselves, which will serve multiple purposes. This digital profile must include things like:

• 

  Academic achievements & certification
• 

  Professional achievements & certification
• 

  A self-introduction video
• 

  Listing of recognitions, awards, scholarships, grants, and other professional honours
• 

  Repository of new and innovative teaching and management activities introduced by the teacher
• 

  List of professional achievements that need to be showcased
• 

  Participation and presentations at national and international conferences and events
• 

  Up-to-date areas of key activities and responsibilities undertaken by the teacher
• 

  Contribution to the teaching community
• 

  Views and ideas about improving teaching in a particular area
• 

  Videos and Pictures
• 

  Social Media links

and other similar achievements.

It is often seen that while there is a need for teachers to create their digital profiles in a centralised manner, teachers need an easy-to-use, technology-driven solution.

This is where Zamit’s Teacher Portfolio comes in to help teachers create and update their personal portfolios. The most important feature of Zamit’s Teacher Portfolio is that it will keep reminding teachers about areas where they may need to build or enhance their portfolio by participation by undertaking Continuous Professional Development (CPD) activities, participation in conferences, participating in research activities and others, to help them to be recognised as a high performing teaching professional.

The process is simple, and teachers must keep uploading their achievements and related evidence regarding certificates, reports, pictures, videos and more. Teachers can share their portfolios with anyone including as part of new job applications while having complete control over who can see what.
