Investigate_Eportfolio

I chose the three sites to critique. For site number one thing that is wrong with it is that there is too much things going for example it is not easy to navigate, and the it does not have a simple background. I also chose site number 2. It is very complicated, there is also a very distracting advertisment going across the screen and it makes hard to read anything on the site. It is also very messy and unorganized. Lastly I chose site number six. The background for this is very distracting, it is so distracting it gave me a head.

A really good website is apple.com, it is very organized, with a simple white background.

This website does have a few advertisements, but I think thats ok because it is a shopping website.

I like this site because it is very organized and unique.

Task 3: An eportfolio is a collection of work developed across varied contexts over time. The reason why we have eportfolios are so that they can help us. advantages that the e-portfolio gives us is that it helps us in our future because collages look at them.

Task 4: If I had time, extra things that I would add in my eportfolio is a contact link.
