The Next Whole Thing in Higher Education. E-portfolios are decidedly not the hottest thing in higher education.

The Next Whole Thing in Higher Education

They just don’t fit the profile for a sexy ed-tech trend. For example, their success does not threaten to disrupt the entire business model of higher education. In fact, when thoughtfully employed, e-portfolios can be a mechanism for greater institutional coherence. Another serious impediment to e-portfolio’s status as an ed-tech trend is that they don’t fit into a neat ed-tech category. The technology of e-portfolios, though enabling or inhibiting, is not the crux of the “it” that makes e-portfolios effective.

That e-portfolios are practices more than technologies means there is no plug and play “total e-portfolio solution” to be purchase or licensed. I don’t mean this conservatively or regressively. E-portfolios provide a mechanism for integrative learning; they give students a way to make connections across courses and experiences in order to create a whole greater than the sum of the curricular parts.

We’re especially interested in the independent critique of socially engaged art that combines detailed description of a given project (based on direct observation of actual working processes) with a developed analysis and evaluation/ reflection. We are also seeking writing that develops new analytic criteria and research methodologies for the analysis of socially engaged art. Theoretical materials, when used, should be directly germane to the project under discussion and subject to some reciprocal testing, in which theoretical precepts are challenged or enriched by their engagement with practice. We invite contributions from artists, art historians, critics, curators, theorists, and activists, as well as scholars working across the humanities and social sciences (sociology, ethnography, philosophy, urban studies, geography, political science, etc.).
