3. What is an e-portfolio? |An ePortfolio is a digital collection of skilfully completed works of a particular person (= lat. artefacts). |Its purpose is to document and represent the product (knowledge) and the process (learning curve/increase of knowledge) of a person's achieved competencies within a specific time period and towards a particular learning goal. |The person has to decide which artefacts he/she wants to include and how to organise them in relation to his/her learning goal. |As the owner of the ePortfolio, the person has full control of who is able to see what kind of information of his/her ePortfolio, how much information and at what specific time.

4. E-Portfolio Types (1/2) |Developmental Portfolios: demonstrate the advancement and development of student skills over a period of time. Developmental portfolios are considered works-in-progress and include both self-assessment and reflection/feedback elements. |Assessment Portfolios: demonstrate competence and skill for well-defined areas. These may be end-of-course or program assessments primarily for evaluating the learners‘ performance. |Reflective portfolios The purpose is to monitor the owners’ development. It is important to know how he/she evaluates and analyses him/herself. Therefore it is crucial that portfolios used in this way contain written reflections by the owner. |Showcase Portfolios: demonstrate exemplary work and skills. This type of portfolio is created at the end of a program to highlight the quality of the competence development, including worksamples |Hybrids: Most portfolios are hybrids of the types of portfolios listed above. 05.12.2015 © Salzburg Research Forschungsgesellschaft 2008.
