eFolio guidelines.
The following are steps candidates can use to create a sleek, well organized eFolio that clearly presents the required elements for the review and defense process. For more information on the actual technical aspects of building or importing on the eFolio, see the FAQ or video resources on the help site.
- Choose a theme that stacks the page tabs vertically. This makes for a much cleaner look. The design is fairly unimportant, but should be professional.
- Create the following tabs on the right.
- Home & Contact (or similar)
- Education & Credentials
- Resume
- Philosophy (or Profile) of Leadership
- Core Competencies
- K-12 (Sp. Ed., Comm. Ed.) Competencies
- Others as necessary or desired
- Upload (but do not place) all of the artifacts and links that will be added to the efolio, using any of the following:
- Upload File
- Upload Image
- URL
- Basic (for education, personal info, etc.)
- For each of the core competencies, follow these same steps
- Open a “basic” selection from the “Add Content” area
- Title the “basic” element with the name of the competency (e.g. Communication)
- Under “Full Text,”, write paragraph(s) about what you did for this competency
- On the menu for this “basic” element, open the section marked “Related Content”
- Drag your related artifacts for this competencies into this area
- Save the “basic” block. It will now be in “My Content.”
- Repeat for each competency before moving on.
- Once a “basic” block has been created for each competency, open the tab for “Core Competencies,” click “build,” and drag the competency “basic” blocks to the center space, and arrange them in order.
- For the specific competencies (K-12, Special Ed., or Community Ed.), repeat as above.
- Add your content to the Philosophy, Resume, and other sections. Link to live documents when possible.
