What is an ePortfolio
Making Meaningful Connections in An ePortfolio (this is a linked post in the What is an ePortfolio link above--it is a good idea to follow the links in the pages that we ask you to review)
My reply:
An ePortfolio is a digital collection of your work that shows your learning journey over time. It can include assignments, projects, reflections, and multimedia. You can use ePortfolios to show off your learning, develop professional skills, and reflect on your growth.
Why use ePortfolios in education?
ePortfolios can help you learn more deeply and transfer your skills to new situations by encouraging you to think about your work and make connections between different ideas. They can also help you develop important 21st century skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, and collaboration. And because ePortfolios are yours, you get to choose what to include and how to express yourself. This can help you feel more empowered and in control of your learning.
How to use ePortfolios effectively
- Get clear guidance and expectations from your teacher. Make sure you understand what you're supposed to do with your ePortfolio, what kinds of things you should include, and how your work will be graded.
- Choose and express yourself freely. Your ePortfolio is your chance to shine, so pick things that you're proud of and that show off your unique talents and perspectives.
- Get feedback and reflect on your learning. Don't just think of your ePortfolio as a dump site for your work. Take some time to reflect on what you've learned, what you've struggled with, and how you've grown over time.
Overall, ePortfolios can be a great way to boost your learning, develop valuable skills, and show off your best work.
