“A portfolio tells a story.”
“The portfolio is a laboratory where students construct meaning from their accumulated experience.”
“A portfolio is opinion backed by fact ..”
Paulson & Paulson, 1991
A teaching portfolio “summarizes major teaching accomplishments and strengths of a professor, and provides a selective account of best practices. It is both reflective and qualitative in its assembly, and involves the collection and presentation of materials in a concise manner (i.e., it's more than just a container to showcase instructional materials)." http://www.tss.uoguelph.ca/resources/idres/packagetd.html
What are they?
ePortfoliosePortfolios
Types of Portfolios• Learning portfolios• Employment portfolios• Assessment portfolios• Showcase portfolios• Personal development portfolios• Teaching portfolios• Training portfolios
These different "types“ of ePortfolios reflected the fact that ePortfolios are being produced and consumed (used) in many different processes, or to manage different processes.

?Paperless portfolios
An ePortfolio is “a collection of authentic and diverse evidence, drawn from a larger archive, that represents what a person or organisation has learned over time, on which the person or organisation has reflected, and designed for presentation to one or more audiences for a particular rhetorical purpose". Educause, NLII, 2003

“…without a central focus on
reflection, e-portfolios are in danger of becoming simply a collection of information rather than a mechanism for the development of meaningful knowledge.”
Battacharya, M & Hartnett, M. E-Portfolio Assessment in Higher Education [Online]. Available: http://fie.engrng.pitt.edu/fie2007/papers/1720.pdf [Accessed June 17, 2008]
• (By using ePortfolio,) I can focus on what my goals are, and follow step by step to achieve my goals.
• (ePortfolios) enable me to evaluate my learning process and outcome.
• As a research student, I find ePortfolio is a useful tool for managing information and organising thoughts...thanks.
• (ePortfolio) helps me plan my three years’ university life.• (ePortfolio helps us) review what we have done, evaluate our
goals and express our strengths to others. • ePortfolio is useful for every students. I think that ePortfolio
workshops should be promoted to all students since their first year in the university.
Some comments from ePortfolio developers
Feedback from students
• Many students (65%) realise that preparation and planning like goal setting, action planning, knowing the course ILOs and assessment criteria, etc. are helpful for achieving better performance.
(634 students responded in Semester A & B 2007-8)
Having the experience in developing ePortfolios and learning to reflect, many students identified important factors or strategies that can help them learn better.
Feedback from students
(634 students responded in Semester A & B 2007-8)
The positive effect on learning is related mainly to the practices of reflection and the process of portfolio making.
Both formative and summative reflection were agreed to be important by about half of the students.
• 56% reflection is very important during the process of learning.
• 46% reflective review and summary at the end of a particular course or activity is important.
• 62% students think that the process of developing a portfolio is useful for learning.
• 34% students think the end product of the portfolio is useful for learning.

Issues & ChallengesPerception & Purposes
– confusion caused by widely differing definitions and perceptions of the nature and functions of ePortfolios. ePortfolios are not only different things to different people, they can also be different things to the same person as perspectives and purposes change.
– problems arising from the conflicting paradigms and purposes of ePortfolios (Barrett and Carney, 2005)
Motivation– Benefits/Incentives (extrinsic & intrinsic motivation)– Time & efforts– Technical challenges (digital native vs consumer)
Issues & Challenges

commitments & supports
• enhance learning and employability• enhance teaching
Curriculum & Co-Curriculum• ePortfolios should be integrated into all General
Education core courses for all first year students to record, manage and reflect on their learning and development;
• Students who apply for scholarships, exchange programs or internships in CityU should submit ePortfolios as a requirement for application.
Faculty development• ePortfolios should be used for peer
review/observation among teachers;• Teachers who apply for Teaching Excellence
Awards should submit ePortfolios as a required document for application.
Technical infrastructure• Technology infrastructure should address the
requirements of ePortfolios for all through coordinated efforts in testing and integrating ePortfolio platforms and tools into the existing IT infrastructure such as an online learning management system;
• Students should be able to continue to own and develop ePortfolios after graduation for at least three years, and ideally, life-long.
Quality assurance • The ePortfolio should be used as a course evaluation
tool;• The ePortfolio should be used as a performance
appraisal tool for evaluating teaching performance;• The ePortfolio should be recognized as one of the means
to evaluate Outcomes Based Teaching and Learning (OBTL);
• The ePortfolio should be recognized as a core IT literacy skill for all students, teachers and staff.
