I am looking into tools for our teachers to use to develop their professional portfolios.  Do you have any suggestions?  Now that teachers will be evaluated on a host of new criteria, we need to have a way to keep track of what we are doing and to be able to share it or parts of it when we want to.  Do you have any suggestions?

We are seeing more and more teachers (and librarians) use their NoodleTools archived projects (student work, assignments, feedback, etc.) as a rich picture of their teaching and collaboration, and as evidence of professional growth.  Interesting, too, is that students are submitting supplementary research portfolios as part of their college application process.

I have a Weebly account, but have never used it.  I will give it a try.  Thank you!

I use Linkedin for that. It's a great tool.
I've used a free PBWorks wiki for the document review that is part of my LMS evaluation. I've kept it private to maintain confidentiality but logged in and shared it with my administrator/evaluator. It is very easy to organize and upload files, photos, documents, etc.

Jeannine, it's great that you want to provide this support for teachers!  I gave a couple of presentations last year about a few ways to do this.  You can see the digital handouts for those presentations here and here with an example portfolio here (only the first standard has been filled in).  In addition, here's an article that outlines how you might use Google Sites for this purpose.

LiveBinder is a good way to keep a portfolio. You can create tabs, post webpages in the "pages" of the binder, you can create custom content. It's a good way to make an online binder.
