Start your web-portfolio
Why do we need a web-portfolio?
What is web-portfolio? How to use it? Web-portfolio, some people also call it electronic portfolio, which is e-portfolio as short. It is a new format for traditional paper-based portfolio.
Traditionally, as Philippa Butler said in his a review of the literature on portfolios and electronic portfolios, “very simply put, a portfolio is a collection of evidence that is gathered together to show a person’s learning journey over time and to demonstrate their abilities. Portfolios can be specific to a particular discipline, or very broadly encompass a person’s lifelong learning.Many different kinds of evidence can be used in a portfolio: samples of writing, bother finished and unfinished; photographs; videos; research projects; observations and evaluations of supervisors, mentors and peers; and reflective thinking about all of these. In face, it is the reflections on the pieces of evidence, the reasons they were chosen and what the portfolio creator learned from them, that are the key aspect to a portfolio. ” Kimball goes further, arguing that “neither collection nor selection of pieces to be incorporated into a portfolio are worthwhile learning tasks without a basis in reflection. Reflection undergirds the entire pedagogy of portfolios. ”
Two other key elements to portfolios are that they measure learning and development over time, and that it is the process of constructing a portfolio, rather than the end product, that is where the learning takes place.
