Framework:

Eportfolios have various stakeholders, students, faculty, program directors, campus-wide initiatives, administrators, others.


Kapi`olani Community College, University of Hawai`i

Framework:

An eportfolio is a collection of multimedia-rich, linked documents that students, faculty, programs, and/or administrators compose, maintain, synthesize, and develop over time.


Washington State University


Engine:

Eportfolios make possible an integration of multiple venues for learning, including class, course, program, and extracurricular input.


University of Minnesota


Engine:

Eportfolios encourage users to make connections in their interdisciplinary learning.


University of Nebrask Lincoln Teacher Ed


Chassis:

Eportfolios help developers make sense of higher education through reflective practices that encourage users to connect their learning experiences.


Clemson University


Drivers and Passengers:

Eportfolio development and sharing needs to be based on developer choice.


University of Nebraska Omaha


Drivers and Passengers: Identify other constituent groups

at your institution that might want to use eportfolios

Identify a dean to facilitate this through developing an inquiry group or taskforce

Write the outcomes of the group into various grants.


Indiana University


Wheels:

Collaborate with as many constituents as you can possibly muster to develop "matrix thinking" and rubrics of assessment for ePortfolios


Virginia Tech University


Drivers and PassengersWheels Pathways

Discuss with others and emphasize the integration of eportfolios in cross-curricular or integrative development practice.


Stanford University


Drivers and Passengers Key

Information Signs:

“A key performance is the work (evidence) a student submits to demonstrate progress toward or achievement of a learning goal.”

For example: a research paper, exam, a creative work, a taped oral presentation, a business plan, or the results of an experiment.

Includes supporting material such as student self-reflection, peer review, and faculty comment.


Kalamazoo College


Drivers and Passengers Measure

Mileposts Along the Way: Rubrics are scoring systems which define

the evidence (see “Key Performance”) needed to demonstrate achievement of particular learning goals set by the major and/ or the institution.

Rubrics are diagnostic (not just the student’s best work) allowing us to pinpoint student progress (or lack thereof) and achievement.

Drivers and Passengers Benefit from Road

Signs:• Scholarship as Public enterprise.• Public Assessment.• Audience Consideration.• Students Working with Students – peer

tutoring and interaction.


Florida State University


Journey’s End

• Value on student work and voice• Emphasis on using assessment as

a means to give student a sense of their capacity

• Most importantly, assessment serving the need of student learning.


La Guardia Community College

What is an eportfolio? V3 EDUCAUSE Portfolios to Webfolios and Beyond: Levels of Maturation By Douglas Love, Gerry McKean, and Paul Gathercoal <http://www.educause.edu/pub/eq/eqm04/eqm0423.asp?print=yes>


Johns Hopkins University


Drivers and Passengers Cruise to Level 5

From Love, McKean and Gathercoals:“We considered eight physical and theoretical qualities inherent

in portfolio/webfolio processes and applications to determine five levels of maturation.”

Level 1—ScrapbookLevel 2—Curriculum VitaeLevel 3—Curriculum Collaboration Between

Student and FacultyLevel 4—Mentoring Leading to MasteryLevel 5—Authentic Evidence as the Authoritative

Evidence for Assessment, Evaluation, and Reporting”


Alverno College


Pathways and Roads, Highways and

FreewaysFunding, of course, for professional

development.Acknowledgment for faculty who use

eportfolios and document their use in reviews, requests for merit raises, or other forms of remuneration

A budget that plans for long-term support


University of Georgia Athens


Extending the Journey

Document use of eportfolio use for administrative reporting.

Support campus events that help eportfolio knowledge and use

Show long-term budgetary commitment to hardware and software use.


Thomas College (Maine)


Mapping the Journey:

Be flexible, expect change.

Allow for individuals, courses, programs, disciplines, extracurricular groups to collaboratively design their matrix.


Ohio State University


(I)NCEPR

(Inter) National Coalition for ePortfolio Research

Around forty colleges and universities around the country are or have been conducting research about ePortfolio effectiveness in higher education.

Cohort I (2004-2006) and II (2005-2007) have finished (some would say just begun) their projects and will be publishing a research collection by mid-2008, edited by Darren Cambridge, Barbara Cambridge, and Kathleen Yancey.

A. a college-wide system?

B. their own ePortfolio?

C. funding to support and sustain ePortfolios?

D. What do you need to get started?
