ePortfolios

I have collected a few articles that display the benefits and use of ePortfolios! I started using them on my journey towards my master's degree in education. I can't wait to have the opportunity to add back into my classroom.


Why we should reflect - Article 
Learning/Process Portfolios involve the focus on Plato’s directive, “know thyself” which can lead to a lifetime of investigation. Self-knowledge becomes an outcome of learning. John Zubizaretta (2004, 2009), in his insightful books on Learning Portfolios in higher education, describes the primary motive of a learning portfolio: “to improve student learning by providing a structure for students to reflect systematically over time on the learning process and to develop the aptitudes, skills, and habits that come from critical reflection.” (2004, p.15)

"An e-portfolio is a purposeful aggregation of digital items – ideas, evidence, reflections, feedback etc, which ‘presents’ a selected audience with evidence of a person’s learning and/or ability." 

  • Eportfolios are a learner’s digital evidence of learning.
  • Therefore eportfolios are a learner’s digital evidence of meaningful connections.
