Professionalism

For me being professional is about acting more formal. When I think of professional I think of a way of acting that just seems less relaxed and like you are confident. Dressing professionally means dressing more conservatively and a little nicer than everyday clothes. Being professional means being on time and having assignments completed when they are supposed to.

For my field of study, I would assume professionalism has a similar meaning. When I think of professionalism for myself I put into consideration what would be acceptable in an office setting where I plan on working.

This applies to my online portfolio in the sense that I will need to show my own sense of being professional in the pages. It won't be an entertaining site with no rules, it will be uniform and it will look nice. It will have completed assignments and will show that I am confident about the work I have done and what I can do.
