e-Portfolio
Definition: An individually and personally oriented electronic archiving system that is integrated into specially identified and specifically designated courses for the purposes of (a) demonstrating student achievement, including (but not limited to) verifications of acquired general education competencies and acquisition of knowledge/skills for career or further education; (b) providing a systematic mechanism and opportunity for student self-reflection regarding progress toward identified educational goals; and (c) facilitating individual and program- or college-wide assessment of student learning outcomes.
Application: Faculty who teach courses that have been specifically designated as incorporating e-Portfolio are expected to advance students’ awareness of the utility and benefits of e-Portfolio beyond the delimited uses prescribed for the particular course.
