Portaportal Assignment

I enjoyed the Portaportal Assignment. I think that it allowed for me to see the usefullness of the concept of having a virtual library. Portaportal provides me as a teacher a means to share my library of knowledge with my peers and students. Instead of telling my fellow teachers how to make a certain lesson plan, I can let them access my portaportal which has various links to websites that have lesson plan templates or websites that have links to hundreds of copyright friendly, free lesson plans online. I can't see myself utilizing this device right now, I don't have the time or the patience to share all of my resources with future competitors, but in the future I think that my time will be well invested in creating a community pool of resources. What could make a team of educators more effective than a program that allows them to share all of the wonderful sources that the internet provides.
