  North Carolina is one of several states that has begun to incorporate the components of the Framework for 21st Century Learning in its focus on school leadership development and support. A school leadership preparation program in rural eastern North Carolina initiated and designed webfolios for submission of evidences of internship learning experiences. Implementation and evaluation results from the first three years (2007-2010) indicated full implementation by both students and faculty. This paper describes the process, perceptions, and lessons learned from students and faculty from three years of implementation.

Introduction

Whether stored on paper or in bytes, portfolios provide a means for individuals to showcase work that demonstrates reflection and progress over time (Montgomery, 2001). Webfolios, one format of electronic portfolios, reflect the web-based or online version of a portfolio which can range from a simple web page to a complex application with processes such as data entry, storage, retrieval and reporting in a standardized fashion with multiple levels of user access. Helen Barrett, a recognized leader in educational usage of electronic portfolios, provides that interactivity is a key characteristic of the Web 2.0 iteration of electronic portfolios, referring to them as ePortfolio 2.0, blog-folios, wiki-folios, or iPortfolios-where these type of portfolios “have the potential to change with the pedagogy of interaction” (Solomon&Schrum, 2007, p. 173). With the current conversations from national groups such as the Partnership for 21 st Century Skills (2004) that propose a need for the development and mastery of information, media and technology skills and incorporate technology-enhanced assessment, the incorporation of webfolios for online assessment and reflection is an important topic for principal preparation programs to consider in their delivery systems.

explain assimilatory nitrate reduction
Esinniobiwa Reply
Assimilatory nitrate reduction is a process that occurs in some microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea, in which nitrate (NO3-) is reduced to nitrite (NO2-), and then further reduced to ammonia (NH3).
Elkana
This process is called assimilatory nitrate reduction because the nitrogen that is produced is incorporated in the cells of microorganisms where it can be used in the synthesis of amino acids and other nitrogen products
