Exploring e-portfolios in a discipline specific context Vidya Kannara and Dr Amanda Tinker ALT Conference University of Manchester 8 – 10 September 2015

Tradition of the Design Portfolio

“By definition, a design portfolio is a grouping of loose sheets collected in a portable case” “By the middle of the twentieth century...a portfolio, of a carried case, similar to those that architects produce, became a routine appendage for any aspiring student.” Tradition of the Design Portfolio “The ‘Exit Portfolio’ -....the portfolio you [the student] will use when you complete your education and are stepping into the workforce full time...you are exiting the educational phase of your life as an architect, interior designer, or landscape architect. This is when your portfolio will receive the most scrutiny by several, if not many, practitioners”. Bender (2012, p.28) “‘Send me your URL’ is fast becoming a more common request than ‘bring in your portfolio’. But according to many design leaders, a website is generally considered an introduction – a preview to the print portfolio that will follow.” Eisenman (2006, pp.9-10)

Project Aim and Objectives To share, map and review current e-portfolio practice, with a view to developing a School Strategy. –To investigate and share current good practice within the School. –To map current e-portfolio activity within the School and its relationship to the institutional VLE. –To review current e-portfolio technology, including open source tools and e-portfolio tools/activity in other arts-based universities. –To develop a School strategy/approach and make recommendations to inform university e-portfolio initiatives.

Yet, in transition and in tandem.... Currently viewed as a welcome addition (not replacement) to the tactile, physical portfolio. Raise awareness of e-portfolio potential amongst staff Capture student perceptions Pilot our e-portfolio ‘journey’ model and appropriate tools with 1-2 courses Connect and combine e-portfolio activities across the University Disseminate findings to inform University strategy Conclusion and Future Directions
