8. Observations
Information Literacy and Collaboration - Teachers were glad to see how many additional skills students acquired in the process - skills that usually are not in the focus at their everyday teaching.
Autonomous Learning was most difficult to implement in teaching as teachers nor students were used to it
Teachers were satisfied with the implementation of the model.
Case Study teacher expressed the wish that ePortfolios would be used in all subjects. She would use them in the future.
Another case Study teacher on the other hand is doubtful if students would ever turn back to their ePortfolios to see what they have learned. In the future, she would rather not use ePortfolios.
Students of both cases pointed out that this kind of learning was new to them and they liked it a lot. They felt much more responsible for their own learning and especially enjoyed collaboration and communication with other students.
