Examine as many artifacts as possible (i.e., lesson plans, student work samples, etc.)
Determine which artifacts support the framework by asking the following questions about each artifact:

Stage 2: ReflectingStage 2: Reflecting
“A [digital] portfolio without reflection is just a multimedia presentation, or a fancy electronic résumé, or a digital scrapbook” (Barrett, 2000)

Reflection is...Reflection is...
"a drawing together of long strands of connections, the weaving together of experiences, theory, and practices into meaning for the individual teacher and a kind of construction of knowledge – a knowledge of teaching practice" (Lyons, 1998, p. 106).

Reflective questioningReflective questioning
How does this artifact demonstrate competence in a particular standard?
Why did I include this artifact (why is it important to me)?
What did I learn as a result of using/creating this artifact?
How would I do things differently as a result of the artifact?

DPP DPP Commandments(Kilbane & Milman, 2003)(Kilbane & Milman, 2003)
When in doubt DON'T throw it out! Do it digital! Be organized, not frustrated! Log it or lose it! If it is nice, save it thrice! Be careful, not sorry! Give credit where credit is due! Do unto others as you would have done unto you. Create and stick to a timeline!
