    Reatha,
            What format are you keeping electronic portfolios on ? Is it on a CD
    or just
    a 3.5 floppy ? I assume you shoot the images with a digital camera.
    I teach middle school and was going to attempt it on floppies
    next year, for my eight graders. But I'd like to pass along the
    information to
    high school teachers who have students working toward scholarships.
                                            Thanks, Woody in KC
