International Journal of ePortfolio (IJeP)

Australia ePortfolio Project The AeP project team has developed the Australian ePortfolio Toolkit for use by ePortfolio practitioners in their institutions. The ePortfolio Toolkit comprises a series of ePortfolio Concept Guides designed to inform the diverse stakeholders in higher education about issues and opportunities associated with ePortfolio learning. ePortfolio Concept Guides These concept guides have been adapted for the Vocational Education and Training (VET)sector by the Australian Flexible Learning Network. Copies of the VET documents can be accessed at: A further valuable resource is a recent publication prepared by JISC in the UK. Effective practice with ePortfolio The publication investigates good practice in the use of ePortfolios as a support in learning and as an aid to progression to the next stage of education or to employment.

Catalyst for Learning site Experienced ePortfolio practitioners know that “pedagogy drives technology” and meaningful ePortfolio practices involve a complex interplay among teaching, learning and technology. The technological aspect of ePortfolio, while not primary or singular in importance, can nonetheless play a critical role in supporting and enhancing — or, in some cases, hindering — campus efforts to realize ePortfolio’s transformative potential. Explore rich narratives from the C2L campuses. Teams discuss platform selection, strategies for engaging students, and ways their platform supports outcomes assessment and professional development. Learn about the importance of selecting an effective ePortfolio platform and the various ways campuses use their ePortfolio technology to support and enhance student, faculty, and institutional learning.

Bienvenido a SCOPEO | Observatorio SCOPEO 2014 AAEEBL Annual Call for Proposals - AAEEBL July 28-31, 2014 Hynes Convention Center The deadline for proposal submission has passed. Introduction and Conference Context AAEEBL and the eportfolio community have long recognized that eportfolios and information/educational technology can fundamentally alter – have fundamentally altered – how people learn. A parallel and potentially synergistic movement in higher education to eportfolios is that of "engaged learning.” In the past several years, a number of theories have elaborated the perspectives of revolutionary theorists and philosophers in the fields of education, psychology, and technology in ways that are particularly relevant to issues of engaged learning. AAEEBL and the eportfolio community have been promoting this new learning paradigm for many years. This year’s conference is all about synergy, intersection, and integration. 1. 2. 3. 1.

EIfEL – European Institute for E-Learning Info In the context of a knowledge society, where being information literate is critical, the ePortfolio can provide an opportunity to support one's ability to collect, organise, interpret and reflect on his/her learning and practice. It is also a tool for continuing professional development, encouraging individuals to take responsibility for and demonstrate the results of their own learning. Recognising individual achievements In the view of a US "e-portfolio consortium": "the student portfolio is quickly becoming recognised as an important means of documenting and evaluating achievements and improvements in student learning. Improving the quality of learning provision We believe that use of the digital portfolio represents an opportunity to improve the quality of education, providing teachers and staff with valuable information to design individualised challenging learning experiences.

Pédagogies actives … une tautologie ? Voici donc la première d’une série de quatre vidéos qui ont été tournées lors d’une conférence donnée à l’ENTE (Ecole Nationale des Techniciens de l’Equipement) de Valenciennes (France). J’étais invité à parler de la pédagogie et des technologies, de la place des TICe (Technologies de l’information et de la communication pour l’enseignement) dans la pédagogie, de la ePédagogie …. pas trop vite ! Un des thèmes d’entrée dans la problématique était celui des méthodes actives souvent associées à la recherche des valeurs ajoutées de ces TICe pour l’enseignement et surtout pour l’apprentissage. Mais quels sont ces dispositifs ? Quels en sont les critères de qualité ? Parmi ceux-ci, nous avons choisi la porte d’entrée de l’alignement pédagogique, de l’alignement entre les objectifs et compétences attendues, les méthodes pédagogiques, l’évaluation auquel nous avons ajouté les outils tant leur influence sur les compétences, les méthodes … est grande.

AEEBL - the Association for Authentic, Experiential and Evidence-Based Learning The word "eportfolio" has been around since the late 1990s and for a decade was a hyped word. As long as there was a hint that the technology itself would change things on campuses, the word "eportfolio" was a galvanizing term. By 2012 or so, however, the term "eportfolio" seemed passe as the hype cycle had dipped. No longer was the term as captivating as it had been. But ECAR annual surveys show that adoption rates belie the "passe" assessment: eportfolio adoption since 2010 has in fact made eportfolio now a part of campus landscapes at half of all institutions of higher learning, and nearly all institutions have some kind of deployment of eportfolios. Not only are eportfolios not "passe" but are growing in use while use of LMS has declined slightly. ePortfolio describes a technology, essentially a learner-owned account in a cloud-based application maintained by a corporation. In that technological distinction lies a world of meaning.
