Definitions

  • Portfolio: systematic and organized collection of a user's work and assessments that documents their efforts, progress and achievements of intended outcomes--for education, career and personal goals.
  • Electronic portfolio (e-portfolio): A portfolio that is stored in an electronic format (CD-Rom, LAN).
  • Web-based e-portfolio: An e-portfolio that uses the web to store and display information.


Purposes

E-Portfolios facilitate life-long learning
  • From K-12 through higher education and beyond
  • Learner in control of education
  • Worker responsible for career development
E-Portfolios serve as valuable tools
  • Portfolios have been used for years as part of the teaching and learning experience.
  • Their value to an individual and an organization has been well documented.
  • E-portfolios allow students to reflect on their learning, communicate with instructors, document credentials, and provide potential employers with examples of their work.
  • Teaching e-portfolios allow faculty to easily capture and share teaching and learning methods, both to advance pedagogy and for promotion and tenure.
  • Institutional e-portfolios allow colleges and universities to provide accessible, persistent collections of data, analyses, and samples of student and faculty achievement that demonstrate institutional success.
  • Conclusion: e-portfolios "work."
