Having spent a day training to use our ePortfolios in the new Learning Environment we are getting has given me time to look at and play with the features within it and to realise the potential of the what this tool can offer to students from all ages.
It is exciting! Long term I see that students will leave college with 11 or more years of records of their progress. There is also potential along the way for the students to interweave some of their personal achievements, successes and interests. Therefore, how will we as teachers manage this? How we will role model, guide and possibly lead best practice? Will we get students to reflect, comment, manage feedback in their ePortfolios as well as collect their best, final copies of the work that they do.
Seems to me these are discussion we will need to have in order to be 'talking the same talk'
