practices. 'Create. Share.
Engage.' is brought to you bythe Mahara team at Catalyst IT.
My name is Kristina Hoeppner.
(00:28):
Today I'm speaking withStarlight (José) Lain-Straus.
Starlight is a student atDominican University of
California, so their interviewis part of the mini series with
students from Dominican and howthey use portfolios. This is the
second interview, and you canlisten to the previous one with
(00:48):
Solena Ornelas in our backcatalogue. Christina Mayes, the
manager of the Fletcher JonesDigital Portfolio Lab at
Dominican and co-organiser ofthe first AAEEBL ePortfolio
Retreat, suggested we have achat. So here we are. It's nice
meeting you, Starlight.
Starlight Lain-Straus (01:05):
Nice to meet you too, Kristina.
Kristina Hoeppner (01:07):
Starlight, can you please tell me a bit
about yourself? What do youstudy?
Starlight Lain-Straus (01:11):
I am a junior at Dominican University
of California. I'm an EducationStudies major with a minor in
Community Action and SocialChange, as well as I am a peer
mentor here on campus, a studentathlete on the men's cross
country and track team, and I'mas well PRIDE Club's president.
Kristina Hoeppner (01:35):
Starlight, why did you pick Dominican
University of California?
Starlight Lain-Straus (01:39):
Since being in a small private school
with 15 students, 14 students inthe classroom, it was useful for
me to have that one-to-oneteacher connection, and that's
what I was exploring throughoutmy colleges, throughout my
junior year, is finding acollege where it was small, but
(02:01):
close knit. Over the summer, wewent on multiple trips of east
coast, west coast, centralcoast, and I settled on
Dominican through cross country.
I wanted to continue my runningcareer as well as I was looking
for a small liberal arts collegewhere I could feel at home,
where I could get really goodsupport, and I found that
(02:22):
through Dominican. I explored itfor several months. We were
supposed to come to Dominican inJanuary of 2022, but our visit
day was cancelled because ofCOVID because it was still going
around during that time. So wejust did a virtual visit day
that they had, and right afterthat, I saw myself at Dominican,
(02:44):
and I committed that day. Andthen in March, we went to visit
the College, me and my father,Kim, and we explored it, we took
a campus tour, I met the crosscountry and track team, and it
felt right to me. It felt likeat home, I could see myself on
campus walking around. I thinkthat's a big aspect of what my
(03:06):
college experience was, iswalking on campus and picturing
myself, 'Do I see myself there?'and I saw myself on Dominican.
Kristina Hoeppner (03:16):
Today, our conversation is not about your
student athlete activity somuch, but rather the portfolio
that you have created and thatyou're working on. When did you
create that? Or did you alreadyhave a different one before
that?
Starlight Lain-Straus (03:31):
I never really had a digital portfolio
until coming to Dominican andbeing an education major,
automatically, our firstrequirement in our programme and
throughout our programme here iswe have to have a digital
portfolio. So right when I wasin my 'Intro to teaching' class
with Kathy Ferrando, we learnedhow to create a digital
(03:55):
portfolio, and we started off bycreating it, so I got right into
it automatically.
Kristina Hoeppner (04:01):
Did you also take 'Navigating college' then
that course that is offered toall incoming students?
Starlight Lain-Straus (04:07):
Yes, I did take 'Navigating college'. I
think in that class, I had a lotmore experience with the digital
portfolio realm just because ofmy education classes requiring
me to have a more sophisticatedportfolio. So I had a little bit
of leverage on that.
Kristina Hoeppner (04:24):
So you've been creating pretty much two
portfolios from the start ofyour college experience then.
Which one do you keep up with?
Or is it both of them?
Starlight Lain-Straus (04:33):
I keep up with the one that I use for
education. I'm always updatingit, which is weird to say
sometimes, just because not manypeople work on it, but I'm
always constantly going throughit when I have the time just to
be like, 'Oh, this needschanging up. This needs adding
something in to make it morecentred to who I am as a
(04:55):
Dominican student.'
Kristina Hoeppner (04:56):
Is that your public portfolio or is that a
separate one?
Starlight Lain-Straus (05:00):
That is my public portfolio.
Kristina Hoeppner (05:02):
That's also the one that we are going to
link to so that everybody cantake a look at it themselves.
You're a peer mentor atDominican. What does that role
entail for you?
Starlight Lain-Straus (05:12):
As a peer mentor, I'm in a leadership role
where I'm reaching out to agroup of mentees that I have
that are incoming freshmen ortransfers, and I'm basically
their support throughout thewhole year of their experience
at Dominican, as well as goingforward until I graduate. We
schedule check-ins with themduring the midterm weeks to see
(05:35):
how they're feeling and figuringout any ways that I as a peer
mentor can support them more,and I think that's very
important.
Kristina Hoeppner (05:43):
How do you support these students then? Do
you have regular office hourswith them?
Starlight Lain-Straus (05:47):
I have a Google Calendar set up that is
also linked into my digitalportfolio. A few weeks ago, I
sent out a text to my specificgroup of mentees and said, 'Hey
all, if you can schedule aone-on-one meeting with me,
please. It'll be brief, it's notgoing to be long. I just want to
check in to see how you'redoing, and how I can support
(06:08):
you.' Through those two weeks, Imet with almost everyone on my
list, and for me, that was waydifferent than last year's
experience because I am in aco-facilitating role in th
'Navigating college' class,whereas last year, I was more on
the digital portfolio side,which is not as much as the
interactions with students part,it's more asynchronous feedback,
(06:32):
which is very useful forstudents to get. But taking on
this new role this semester as a'Navigating college' peer
mentor, it has given me a lot ofexperience with working with
college students as a educationmajor, so I have that aspect.
Kristina Hoeppner (06:48):
So you've been a peer mentor portfolio
last year, and now you're a peermentor without the specific
focus on portfolio. If you thinkback about your experience as
peer mentor portfolio, how didyou help other students? Was it
primarily through thatasynchronous feedback that you
gave them on their portfolios?
Starlight Lain-Straus (07:10):
It was primarily through asynchronous
feedback, unless someonescheduled a Zoom meeting with
me, and then they'd share theirportfolio with me, and I take a
look at it, and I'd give themsuggestions on what they could
add that I think would benefitthem as well as I gave them a
lot of positive feedback. Ithink it's all about positive
(07:31):
feedback. It's a lot ofsuggestions to help them create
their portfolio and continue toexpand it.
Kristina Hoeppner (07:37):
So you can even bring in some of your
teaching experience in thatengagement with his students.
Starlight Lain-Straus (07:43):
Yes.
Kristina Hoeppner (07:44):
So thinking back at the two portfolios that
you've created, the one for'Navigating college' and then
the one for your educationclass, and you also being an
education major, therefore, in away, I think needing to look
behind the scenes of theportfolio to get the idea, the
pedagogy around portfolios. Whydo you continue updating your
(08:05):
portfolio? Is that just arequirement for education? Or do
you also see a bigger reason foryourself in that?
Starlight Lain-Straus (08:13):
It is a requirement to continuously be
updating it, but also settingaside that requirement, for me,
it's wanting to make my digitalportfolio as personable and
reflective of who I am as astudent at Dominican, and going
forward and showing people likemy family, showing my friends,
showing Christina Mayes, inparticular, who I am, what
(08:36):
experience I have, where are theaspects that I can improve on
and continue on throughout mycareer here at Dominican.
Kristina Hoeppner (08:43):
Did you receive any feedback from your
family once they've looked atyour portfolio?
Starlight Lain-Straus (08:48):
From my family, I received a lot of
feedback because I am not thestrongest writer. So of course,
there was always writingmistakes, and my two dads, Kim
and Jack, they helped me improvethat they gave me suggestions,
'Oh, I like this. Maybe you canadd something here to make it
more personable.' My friends,they didn't give as much
(09:10):
feedback. They were just thereto look at it and give me
suggestions, 'Maybe this couldbe tweaked, or I like this,' but
not as much as my family did.
Kristina Hoeppner (09:19):
You're now in your third year of keeping your
portfolio. How has yourportfolio changed over time?
Starlight Lain-Straus (09:24):
It's changed really drastically. I
didn't have as much leadershipexperience two years ago as a
freshman, and now looking at mydigital portfolio in my junior
year, I'm like, 'Oh, I'm now onPRIDE, I'm on PSAAC, I'm on
ASDU, I'm a peer mentor.' Thoseare some things that are on my
(09:44):
digital portfolio now that if Ilook back, I don't think that
would ever happen. I've done alot since coming on to campus. I
think that is my purpose forcontinuing to update my
portfolio is to show people,showcase it to incoming freshmen
or just anyone in general.
This is my portfolio. No, it'snot gonna look like yours. And
(10:06):
that's something that weemphasise throughout my
'Navigating college' class thatI co-facilitate with is just
because Princess and I have ourdigital portfolios and they look
like that doesn't mean yourfirst year it's going to look at
the end of the year like ours.
It's a work in progress, andit's always going to be a work
in progress because you'realways going to be wanting to
(10:28):
update it, as well as makingsure that you are adding things
that are personable to you andgetting feedback from just
anyone, professors, friends.
Kristina Hoeppner (10:39):
So if you were to summarise the benefits
of portfolios for the students,what would you say?
Starlight Lain-Strau (10:45):
Impactful.
I think it's very impactful justgetting support from peer
mentors, professors, friends,family. It's very impactful
because it allows you to be andto showcase who you are as a
student here at Dominican, whoyou are as a student outside of
Dominican, and where you seeyourself in four years, five
years.
Kristina Hoeppner (11:08):
Do you think you'll keep up maintaining your
portfolio and updating it?
Starlight Lain-Straus (11:13):
I think I will continue to update it, not
as much as I'm doing here atDominican, but definitely I'll
be updating it.
Kristina Hoeppner (11:21):
Is there anything that you currently can
do with your portfolio but wouldlike to do?
Starlight Lain-Straus (11:25):
I don't think so. I like all the
aspects, all the requirements.
Some of them can be a littletricky, but after you think for
a while, it becomes better.
Kristina Hoeppner (11:37):
So now to our quick answer questions,
Starlight, which alreadyindicates the end of our
conversation today. And so thefirst question is, which words
or short phrases do you use todescribe portfolio work?
Starlight Lain-Strau (11:51):
Impactful, motivating, and useful.
Kristina Hoeppner (11:54):
Fantastic.
Thank you. What tip do you havefor learning designers,
instructional designers, or alsoyour instructors who create
portfolio activities forstudents like you?
Starlight Lain-Straus (12:06):
Positive feedback, impactful feedback
will be helpful.
Kristina Hoeppner (12:10):
And now, what advice do you have for fellow
students, for portfolio authors?
Starlight Lain-Straus (12:15):
Be yourself when you create your
portfolio. Make it to centralisewho you are as a person in
today's society, no matter what.
Don't be afraid of hittingroadblocks when creating your
digital portfolio. That alwayshappens, and as a human, we
always run into blocks in ourroad, but always continually
just be yourself.
Kristina Hoeppner (12:38):
How would you overcome those roadblocks? Do
you have some strategies?
Starlight Lain-Straus (12:42):
Reach out for help. Ask for help from
family, friends, professors,mentors.
Kristina Hoeppner (12:47):
Thank you so much, Starlight, for sharing how
you're working with portfolios.
Thank you so much for your time.
Starlight Lain-Straus (12:53):
