Benefits of an e-Portfolio

Last semester we launched our e-Portfolio in the MS. This semester we continue to work with students on developing and personalizing these portfolios and they will become an integral component in our student-led conferences in March/April.

One of the questions that still pops up from time to time is, "Why do you use e-Portfolios?" This is a good question to which I always respond in terms of benefits for the students. Karen Barnstable has posted "41 Benefits of an e-Portfolio" on her blog. After reading this insightful list I think the question will become, "Why aren't you using e-Portfolios?"

For more information in support of e-Portfolios be sure to visit Ray Tolley's blog, eFolio in the UK.
