2. What the heck is an
Electronic Portfolio?

purposeful collection of
digital samples of
student work

digital form, scanned

Portfolio be developed?

multiple dimensions to form
an authentic assessment of
students' academic
progress

CD, or the internet.
IN THE CLOUD!

4. OLD way…
•Traditionally, portfolios have been
stored in boxes and three-ring binders.
•Although this format works fine for
paper and other print-based materials, it
misses many other ways of
communicating ideas.

5. New Way – New Format!
• Over the past decade,
many people have found
electronic portfolios as an
effective way to more
clearly present
information not only
through text, but also
through visuals, audio,
and video formats

6. New Way!
• Documents can be stored
on hard drives, Zip disks,
or DVD/CD-ROM in many
digital formats such as text
documents, picture files,
web pages, digital video,
and presentation files
• Or in the CLOUD
iGoogle ; dropbox; box.net

7. Benefits of Using
Electronic Portfolios
