Electronic Portfolios A digitized collection of artifacts produced by students to show learning and accomplishment of competencies.

Difference with Traditional Portfolios With e-portfolio a content management system facilitates: o Collection o Reflection o and sharing of the documents

Types of Electronic Portfolios Showcase Portfolios: Is Usually created at the end of a program to highlight the student skills and quality of work. Main purpose is to impress potential employers for employment. Developmental Portfolios: Show the development of student skills over a period of time, and are considered works-in- progress and include both self-assessment and reflection/feedback elements. Main purpose is to provide communication between students and faculty. Assessment Portfolios: Demonstrate student competence and skill for well-defined areas. These may be end-of- course or program assessments primarily for evaluating student performance. Main purpose is to evaluate student competency as defined by college, or program standards or outcomes. Hybrids: In many cases portfolios are hybrids of the mentioned three types. Rarely will you find a portfolio that is only used for showcase, development or assessment purposes. As Helen Barrett, an expert in the field of e-portfolios, would say "a portfolio without standards, goals and/or reflection is just a fancy resume, not an electronic portfolio."
