E-portfolios are an
NLII key theme because their use has the potential to transform teaching and
learning so that it is more learner-centered and outcomes-oriented. Architects,
artists, and others have long used portfolios to show their visual work, while
other professionals (e.g. musicians) use them to demonstrate their creative
talents. Portfolios are collections of work designed for a specific
objective—that is, to provide a record of the accomplishments. Many students
already produce portfolios for various uses, such as reflection, communication
with instructors, or presenting examples of outstanding work and credentials to
potential employers. As our technical capacity grows and we become more and more
able to collect, store, manipulate and share information digitally, and as
students develop the skills necessary to produce their portfolios in electronic
formats, electronic portfolios become a potentially vital part of a students'
permanent records, and of their management of their own learning. E-portfolios
are also beginning to be used by faculty, and at the institutional level (as
part of accreditation review). Issues that arise include how to design to
improve student institutional learning, privacy issues, ownership issues,
technical standards and interoperability, management of distributed digital
repositories, and impact on registrars and student services at institutions of
higher education.
