Beyond Just a Blog
This document discusses using blogs and digital portfolios to showcase student learning and assessment. It notes that blogs and digital portfolios allow students to have endless space to demonstrate both assessment for learning and assessment of learning over long periods of time. The document explores whether blogs, portfolios, or a combination called a "blogfolio" is best and notes that the name is less important than the reflection and feedback it facilitates. Potential advantages of digital formats are discussed, as well as considerations around platforms, permissions, approval processes, multimedia integration, and connections. The goal is to meaningfully enhance sharing opportunities for student work.
