The online portfolio that I have created does not represent me very well. The reason for this is because I do not enjoy creating websites and putting things online. If I was not required to pout anything online I wouldn't. I hate the fact that it is a required part of this course to put things online because it has nothing to do with english. I agree on a very low level about finding visuals to go along with your writing in order to emphasize points or create new ideas in the readers mind. But I do not agree with the idea of having to put the papers online. Therefore my online portfolio is not very good, because I honestly have not taken the time to make it look awesome.
But to address the journal, having it online is different than having it in a paper folder because It looks more official. It looks like you had to do extra work in order to get it online. I think my online portfolio looks okay. I do not think it represents me in a flawless way because I did not put my best effort into making it look perfect. It is different for a reader because it is easily accessible. The reader can look at each paper simultaneously and compare the text the pictures and the style. The audience is also easily influenced because with a website you are able to change the font the colors and the pictures to what ever you please in order to influence the audience.
In conclusion, I would personally rather create a paper portfolio rather than an online one.
