Framing the ePortfolio
ePortfolios have continued to evolve for many years. As they evolve they become valued in the systems for which they were designed.

Students
  • start an eportfolio and include completed work,
  • include reflection and information pertinent to their studies

As time evolves and they continue their education, they move from using an eportfolio to study from and review,
  • to tailor their CV for perspective employers
  • to demonstrate their competency in various areas

Faculty
  • use an eportfolio as a tool to create their CV as well
  • highlight their publications
  • review student eportfolios and act as a mentor to the student

As time evolves and faculty continues to support the use of eportfolios, more integration of eportfolios with academic recording and sharing will evolve too.

Uses of the eportfolio continue to become creative and accepted as we will demonstrate in our next section.

Corporations are now becoming interested in the use and integration of eportfolios and their interoperability with existing systems to assist in the professional development of their employees.

"Denise, Interesting comment...the e portfolio is an evolution. Critical reflection allows the individual to take an objective position on their work. E portfolios track the evolution of the student's work as well as their own personal growth. "

"I still don't understand why reflection is thus a huge thing for e-portfolios - who wants it? why? "
