ePortfolios for Teaching, Learning, and Research in Higher Education: Basic Definitions, Interesting Developments, and Some Recommendations

Presenters: Kathleen Blake Yancey, Kellogg W. Hunt Professor of English and Distinguished Research Professor, Florida State University

Steve Gilbert, Beth Dailey, TLT Group and others

For ePortfolios, aren’t we well beyond the “miracle vs. catastrophe” phase for new educational technologies/strategies?  So it makes sense to ask these questions:

• What are some basic models of eportfolios?

• How many faculty are using ePortfolios? And for what purposes?

• What are some current developments in ePortfolio operating at the classroom level?

• What are some current developments operating in national and international contexts?

• For faculty who have not used ePortfolios much before or at all, but who are ready to begin soon, what are one or two things they could do first?
