Definition of E-portfolios
An e-portfolio is a digitized collection of artifacts including demonstrations, resources, and
accomplishments that represent an individual, group, or institution (Lorenzo & Ittleson, 2005, p. 1).
![Page 3: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
3 General Purposes for Developing& Using E-portfolios
• Learning (Formative) Portfolios(occurring on an on-going basis)
• Assessment (Summative) Portfolios(occurring within the context of a formal evaluation)
• Employment (Marketing) Portfolios(used for seeking employment)
(Barrett, 2001, p. 1)

Education E-portfolios
Education E-portfolios may be design to be used by the following individual, group, and or institution learners:
- Students- Teachers- Schools
![Page 5: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Education E-portfolio Contents
• Think of an education e-portfolio as an electronic container that operates via electronic technologies and purposely contains an on-going collection of students , teachers, and/or institutions work (artifacts) and their reflections on that work.
• The contained reflections transform the artifacts into “evidence” of achievement.
![Page 6: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Education E-portfolio Digital Information Contents
• The contained artifacts can be in text-based, graphic or other multimedia formatted elements (i.e.; audio, video, etc.).
• The contained elements may be archived and saved on a Web site or other electronic media (i.e.; Partitioned Hard Drive, CD-ROM or DVD).

Education E-portfolio Digital Information Contents
• Education E-portfolios are not a haphazard collection of artifacts (i.e.; digital scrapbook or a multimedia presentation).
• Education E-portfolios differ from digital scrapbooks due to the way they are structurally organized.
![Page 8: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Education E-portfolio Digital Information Contents
• Education E-portfolios are organized by the following criteria:
– A set of standards or learning goals
– The learner’s reflections (their achievements of the standards, rationale for selecting specific artifacts, and portfolio as a whole)
![Page 9: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Student Education E-portfolio
• Reflective tool that exhibits the student’s effort, progress and achievements in one or more areas over a designated period of time. Examples include the following:
– Graphic bar chart of students standardized assessment scores over the period of 5th thru 8th grades.
– Mastery of verbal communication skills via video taped interviews each consecutive academic year.

Performance-based EducationE-portfolios
Characteristics of a performance-based education E-portfolios are as follows:
– Student is involved in meaningful performance tasks– There are clear standards and criteria for excellence– Emphasis is on meta-cognition and self-evaluations– Student produces products (artifacts) and performance– There’s a positive interaction between student and
teacher
![Page 13: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Education Standards-basedE-portfolios
• Uses a database or hypertext links to show relationship between standards or goals, artifacts and reflections.
• Create linkages between student tasks and performance assessments, with associated scoring guides, and standards that were designed to demonstrate.
![Page 14: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Education E-portfolios
• As E-portfolios are learner centered, the collection of contents must include the student’s participation in the following:– Selecting contents– The criteria for selection– The criteria for judging merit (i.e.; rubrics)– Evidence of student selection
![Page 15: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Teaching E-portfolios
• Derived from paper-based teaching and course portfolios
• Can serve as documentation of skills and accomplishments for career advancement
• Can be used for critical reflection and learning purposes (i.e.; collective learning and knowledge sharing)
![Page 16: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Teaching E-portfolio Issues and Challenges
• Can present information overload• Faculty Professional Development Technology
Training• Copyright and privacy issues• Faculty adoption/buy-in issues
Note: Teaching E-portfolio ‘s content can receive input from student E-portfolios and its content can serve as input to institutional/schools’ E-portfolios.
![Page 17: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
School E-portfolios• Institutional E-portfolios incorporate student and
teaching E-portfolios as well as a wide range of programs and departments.
• Typically present “a focused selection of authentic work, data, and analysis that demonstrates institutional accountability and serves as a vehicle for institution-wide reflection, learning, and improvement.
(Lorenzo & Ittleson, 2005, p. 5)
![Page 18: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
School E-portfolio Issues and Challenges
• Use permission: can be resolved via subject release forms
• Complexity and scope effort: institutional e-portfolios require significant organizational development and maintenance efforts.
• Assembling the right team: requires the building of an effective and knowledgeable institutional research staff, web developer(s), graphic designers, and technically skilled staff (i.e.; analyst, multimedia , database construction and maintenance, etc.)
![Page 19: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Benefits of Developing & UsingE-portfolios for Students or Teachers
• Minimal storage space• Easy to create back-up files• Portability• Long shelf life• Learner-centered• Increases technology skills (i.e.; multimedia)• Improves higher order thinking skills• Easier to make arguments that certain standards are met
with the use of hypertext links• Accessibility and ease of documenting, tracking and
reporting student outcomes.

Macromedia Director)
![Page 29: E-portfolio… A Valuable Individual, Group, & Institution Learning & Assessment Tool Presentation by: Sonja Garris-Taylor Wednesday, - June 20, 2012 Howard](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c575503460f948ff44d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Suggested Education E-portfolio Functional Operations
• Collection – teachers and students save artifacts that represent day-to-day growth opportunities
• Selection – teachers and students review and evaluate the saved artifacts and identify those that demonstrate achievement of specific standards.
• Reflection – teachers and students become reflective practitioners by evaluating their own growth over time--- including any gaps in their achievement
• Projection – teachers and student compare their reflections to the standards and performance indicators, and set goals for the future (beginning of professional development and lifelong learning).
• Presentation – teachers and students share their portfolios with their peers encouraging collaboration, professional development, and lifelong learning.
