The Teaching Portfolio
of Barbara L. Wilt

Welcome to the online version of my teaching portfolio. The pages contained within this site represent several years of college performance achievements with evidence from actual teaching experiences. My undergraduate and post-graduate degrees, including student teacher training, were earned through the University of Alaska Anchorage. Therefore, this portfolio is organized according to the eight Alaska Teacher's Performance Standards. At the bottom of each page, a reflective analysis of the page content establishes my rationale for the evidence submitted in support of each standard. In time, I plan to reorganize this site to reflect the teaching standards of my new home state of Washington.
