2. Stage 1: Identifying teaching goals to assess
through portfolio
It is very important at this stage to be very clear
about what the teacher hopes to achieve in
teaching.
These goals will guide the selection and
assessment of student’s work for the portfolio.
3. Stage 2: Introducing the idea of Portfolio
Assessment to your class
Portfolio assessment is a new thing for many
students who are used to traditional testing.
For this reason, it is important for the teacher
to introduce the concept to the class.
4. Stage 3: Specification of Portfolio Content
Specify what and how much have to be
included in the portfolio- both core and options
(it is important to include options as these
enable self- expression and independence).
Specify for each entry how it will be assessed.
5. Stage 4: Giving clear and detailed guidelines
for portfolio presentation
There is a tendency for students to present as
many evidence of learning as they can when
left on their own.
The teacher must therefore set clear guidelines
and detailed information on how the portfolios
will be presented.
6. Stage 5: Informing key school officials,
parents, and other stake holders
Do not attempt to use the portfolio assessment
method without notifying your department
head, dean or principal.
This will serve as a precaution in case
students will later complain about your new
assessment procedure.
7. Stage 6: Development of the Portfolio
Support and encouragement are required by
both teacher and students at this stage.

conferences, to practicing reflection and self-
assessment and to portfolio preparation.
