Hi Christie

I'm a bit confused and disoriented on this page. Why did you use a three column layout for two column content? The block with the title Text, I can see it meant for the artefact to its left, but logically should belong to the artefact below but that doesn't mesh with the title of that artefact.

Your first artefact is some awesome feedback and makes a great artefact. I usually say "add a supportive artefact," but this one does fine on its own. But in the future, you might want to consider adding an artefact that you can use in combination with the already existing one. For example, if you get a chance to record yourself at any stage providing such feedback provide the video of it (e.g. EDP385; though, having said that, as we are not to provide anything that can identify school or student, maybe just provide the audio of the recording).

The second artefact you've included I'm not sold on. It seems to tell us more what you haven't achieved yet, than what you have achieved, which is the purpose of a portfolio. The omission is enough to show you haven't fulfilled a standard yet.

Keep up the good work. Looks like you've got the skills to be a great teacher. All the best on that journey.

Hi Christie,

Great examples of artefacts! Both artefacts show an understanding of Starndard 5 as well as the focus areas highlight by your choice in artefacts. 

I would suggest readjusting your layout, this will make your artefacts larger and easier to read, without having to open them in a new tab/window.  Also having your text sections both aligned on either left or right of your artefact will give it a smoother, cleaner appearance too, at first I was a little confused about which text related to which artefact. 

Lastly, I would also like to suggest being more reflective in your writing. You have written what standards your artefacts meets, but there is no  description about what the artefact is, or how or why it specifically meets those standards. As a reader, I am left to guess the finer details of the feedback left in your artefact - How did you monitor student work, what types of feedback were students provided with, year level, etc. From there, you could then elaborate on what would come next in your student-teaching, how you could further develop these skills and what other AITSL standards links to this evidence.

I hope this helps, good luck with your studies.

Kind regards,

Hi Christie,

I can see you have listed the artefacts and the feedback from your previous prac mentor teacher. Your profile page is very detailed and has lots of images and pictures too. Will you be adding some more artefacts here too? That could include your previous assignments, images and reflective writing on how they helped you meet this AITSL standard. Just let me know when you add.
