Goals?
The goals...
“The Assessment for learning turns day-to-day
assessment into a teaching and learning process
that enhances (instead of merely monitoring)
student learning.
The goal of assessment for learning is not to eliminate
failure, but rather to keep failure from becoming
chronic and thus inevitable in the mind of the learner
And...
The goals...
"electronic portfolios are much more than innovative resumes or scrapbooks...
eportfolios show "reflection, evolution of thought, and professional
development"
“An electronic portfolio provides an environment where students can: collect
their work in a digital archive; select specific pieces of work (hyperlink to
artifacts) to highlight specific achievements; reflect on the learning
demonstrated in the portfolio, in either text or multimedia form; set goals for
future learning (or direction) to improve; and celebrate achievement through
sharing this work with an audience, whether real or virtual. When used in
formative, classroom-based assessment, teachers (and peers) can review the
portfolio document, and provide formative feedback to students on where they
could improve”
The core?
The core...
ePortefolio’s
“An eportfolio can be a web-based information management system that uses
electronic media and services. The learner builds and maintains a digital
repository of artifacts, which they can use to demonstrate competence and
reflect on their learning. Having access to their records, digital repository,
feedback and reflection students can achieve a greater understanding of their
individual growth, career planning and CV building.”

some metaphores...
Toothbrush - A habit of mind, something you do
every day.
Caterpillar (or Acorn or Seed) - An emerging
form... undergoing metamorphasis through personal
growth... from a caterpillar to a butterfly; from an
acorn to a tree; from a seed to a flower or plant.
e-Portefolios...
some metaphores...
Kaleidoscope - E-Portfolio as Kaleidoscopic Process: Reflective View
from Self to Global Society
Just as a kaleidoscope needs light to view the endless possiblities of
visual combinations of the colored glass, an e-portfolio provides the
illumination for the learner to view the endless possibilities of the potential
views and connections of her/his learning experience from self to global
society.
Confessional - "A place where the student can quietly and privately
recount acts of commission and omission and confess such to a selected
audience. It is a place of catharsis and refreshment. Upon leaving this
sanctuary the student is inspired to new levels of enlightenment and
endeavour." (contributed by Ray Tolley, ICT Education Consultant
Maximise-ICT)
e-Portefolios...
some metaphores...
A Constant Companion - "People often work best at the strangest of
times or places. We are not all constructed like robots to think only
between the hours of 9 to 5 at our office desk. The e-Portfolio is a
companion or familiar friend to whom we can turn at any hour of the day
or night, anywhere, anywhen." (contributed by Ray Tolley, ICT
Education Consultant Maximise-ICT)
Digital Theatre - It is my digital theatre - where the audience is by
invitation only. (contributed by Ray Tolley, ICT Education Consultant
Maximise-ICT)
