Module 7: ePortfolio Project
The aim of this course, and the preceding modules has been to curate content for the start of your ePortfolio.
This resource lives in Canvas, and is an area where you can collect work across courses and phases of your degree, to showcase your progress or just simply to show off!
Using your submissions for this course as the initial content, we'll set up the basic structure of your ePortfolio as our Final project.
Important Note: In no way is this meant to be a final, polished collection. This is meant to build the basics so that you can spend your academic journey adding to this and refining it. The goal is to complete your degree with an ePortfolio that you would be proud to share with a potential employer.
Following the ePortfolio guide (and using the creation Wizard) set up the basic structure of your ePortfolio. Download Following the ePortfolio guide (and using the creation Wizard) set up the basic structure of your ePortfolio.

Module 7: Lecture Content- Characteristics and Techniques to Develop Critical Thinking
Definition reached by a panel of leading critical thinking scholars and researchers and reported in the Delphi Report (Evans, 2020):
"Purposeful, self-regulatory judgment which results in interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, and an explanation of the evidential, conceptual, methodological, criteriological, or contextual considerations upon which that judgment is based."
Reading - Tips to develop critical thinking:
· Establish the purpose of the reading.
· Examine and inspect the content of the entire book.
· Ask and formulate questions.
· Look for the meaning of what you are reading.
· Express what you are reading.
· Review what you have studied.
Reading Comprehension:
Reading is a process that involves the following steps:
|
Perception |
Our eyes must be able to perceive a word or a set of words in a fraction of seconds while our mind captures the meaning. In other words, three or four words are embraced at a glance. A focused and alert mental activity is necessary. |
|
Comprehension |
Ability to understand the message by creating the image in mind according to what the word conveys. |
|
Interpretation |
The reader attributes meaning to something. |
|
Reaction |
The reader has an attitude of acceptance or rejection of the ideas expressed by the author. |
|
Integration |
The reader establishes relationships of the ideas expressed, that is, accepts them or integrates them into their personal experiences if they consider them to be of value. |
Written Communication:
A good writer should consider the following processes:
· Plan, generate ideas and elaborate a writing plan. What you want to say, how to say it, what people know about the subject.
· Write, and convert ideas into words, for which it is necessary: a graphic representation of letters, structuring of ideas, words, sentences, and paragraphs, apply grammar and spelling rules.
· Proofreading, improving the text until it is in its final form.
Oral Communication:
To establish effective oral communication, consider the following:
· Use the appropriate technological tools to transmit the message.
· Pay attention to nonverbal communication and body language.
· Encourage interaction and feedback among participants.
· Use appropriate language.
· Watch your posture.
· Search for a focal point in front of a large audience, and the key will be to look around the room to determine control in communication.
