Join Aedamar O'Donnell, a Mathematics teacher and experienced educator and Siobhan O’Reilly, an experienced Programme Coordinator, for a practical webinar on setting up and managing digital portfolios for Transition Year students. This session aligns with the principles in the TY Programme Statement, offering a structured approach that fosters student reflection and personal growth throughout the year.
In this webinar, you will learn how to implement a digital portfolio system that promotes:
  • Personal  Growth – Encouraging students to document and reflect on their journey, developing autonomy, empathy, and leadership as outlined in the      TY Programme Statement.
  • Being a Learner – Supporting students to engage in self-directed learning,set goals, and track achievements.
  • Civic and Community Engagement – Guiding students to capture experiences and contributions that connect them to their communities.
  • Career  Exploration – Enabling students to document their career exploration and related skills development.
Our approach ensures that portfolios are easy to maintain while creating meaningful opportunities for students to reflect on and celebrate their progress. This is ideal for TY educators seeking to support ongoing reflection, align with the TY Programme’s holistic educational aims, and provide students with a tangible record of their personal and academic growth.
Ideal For: TY coordinators, teachers, and school staff who aim to integrate reflective practices and personalised growth tracking into their TY curriculum.
