I intend to help young people, which are high school students in my case, realize their potential through the use of student ePortfolios.  Starting with a discussion and having adults give real examples of how their own ePortfolio was beneficial will help my students understand why having an ePortfolio is essential for young people as they progress in school and as they transition into the job market will make the students realize the necessity of the ePortfolio. The design choices of how their ePortfolio will look visually will reinforce the graphic design ideas I teach and give the students a profound sense of ownership and, therefore, a desire to “make it their own.”
