LO1.1 What is a personal media profile?

A personal media profile is represented as a form of a digital portfolio, which may showcase audio visuals as a film reel, or a portfolio of photos you have previously taken

Your personal profile in social media gives others an immediate sense of who you are, including the basics of your name, appearance, interests, influences. It's considering how you want to represent yourself, because your digital profile is your digital calling card and may be seen by millions of people on the Internet.

Strengths and weaknesses of digital portfolio:

 Strengths:

Portability: Easier to transport than hard copy versions.

Creativity: New non-linear formats and the integration of various media types allow students many ways to creatively express their professional knowledge and skills.

Self-confidence: Building technology skills and fostering self-confidence in their own abilities.

Community: Sharing ideas and resources.

Weaknesses:

The creation of digital portfolios requires advanced knowledge and skills and sometimes expensive, high-tech equipment.

Viewing a digital portfolio sometimes requires special software as well as additional knowledge and skills on the part of the viewer.

Technology can often obstruct the view of students’ REAL accomplishments by using too many ‘bells and whistles’.

Be aware of the possibility of plagiarism as it may be easier to use your information as it is already in a digital format and easily copied and pasted or saved onto another person’s computer.
