What is an ePortfolio?鈥�

An ePortfolio is a digital space where items are gathered and curated, with a certain purpose and audience in mind. They may be used in a single course to encourage reflection on the learning process and demonstrate fulfillment of the course objectives, or on a larger scale, to display the stages of learning and mastery across a project or someone鈥檚 academic or professional journey. ePortfolios are driven by the creator and can include a variety of media, such as text, graphics, images, documents, videos, and audio. Rather than focusing solely on the final product, 鈥渇olio-thinking鈥� encourages students to connect all aspects of learning, including reflection on the learning process and how learning happens both inside and outside the classroom. In this way, ePortfolios and 鈥渇olio-thinking鈥� allow students to illustrate what they know, how they know it, how to apply it, and where it fits in the world.
