Students will develop an electronic portfolio (e-Portfolio) through an appropriate organisation or internet-based site, such as Google Sites. A minimum of four sections/web-pages is required at this stage, but students may add more if they desire. The four required sections/web-pages are: 1. Profile (snapshot of the student: personal attributes; academic and employment achievements; brief career; strategies to achieve compliance with NMBA guidelines). 2. Curriculum vitae (personal details; academic and employment history; referees; interests). 3. Continuing professional development (CPD) (past and planned short courses, workshops, seminars, conferences, working groups or other relevant professional development activities). 4. Based on the Gibbs Cycle (or other reflection framework), critical reflection on a specific recent event in either a work or education context (not the critical reflection from Assessment 1). Students will commence inserting information into each section/web-page (200 words for each for profile, curriculum vitae and continuing professional development sections and 400 words for the critical reflection), noting that infor- mation is about the individual student. Students will submit the URL of their portfolio, ensuring that the marker has access to the site. As this assessment is a professional portfolio, presentation and academic writing style are important. Sections 1 and 4 must be written narratively (no dot points or bullets). Sections 2 and 3 may incorporate dot points or bullets. For Turnitin checking purposes, students are to cut and paste the text from their final portfolio into a word version document (.doc or .docx), together with the URL for their e-portfolio, for submission through Turnitin via the vUWS site. The e-portfolio itself will be marked, not the pasted text, so the formatting within the text document is not important.
