1. The document discusses electronic portfolios (e-portfolios), which allow individuals to digitally showcase their skills and achievements. There are several types of e-portfolios, including working, academic, presentation, and professional portfolios.
2. E-portfolios have several benefits over traditional paper portfolios, such as the ability to include varied media like videos and links. They can be used for purposes like applying to graduate school or seeking employment.
3. Whether used for education or career purposes, e-portfolios generally include components like biographies, educational/work backgrounds, honors, artifacts demonstrating skills, and contact information. Their use benefits both students and employers.
Staff INSET for e-Portfolios in FE is seriously lacking. This paper attempts to address some of the issues relating to a proper understanding of the use of e-Portfolios in teaching, learning and formative assessment.

Dear MHCI Alumni,
We're conducting a search for the new Director of the MHCI.
The attached job description is different than most of the ones we send out. This is an opportunity to guide the next generation of HCI practitioners as Bonnie or Jenna or Carl did for you.
Demand for HCI practitioners has grown dramatically in no small part due to your hard work. As a result, the MHCI program has increased in size and remarkably similar masters programs have sprung up all over the world. This means the Director not only guides the students at the MHCI but influences the direction of education in our field.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please let us know.
All my Best,

How could Open Badges Transform ePortfolio Practices and Technologies! Serge Ravet
Looking at the history of ePortfolio practice and technologies over the last 10 years, one is entitled in asking: what has changed? Is the ePortfolio technology we have today that different from what we had 10 years ago? While there is certainly a wider spread of ePortfolios, have ePortfolios transformed practice or been assimilated by institutions?
Open Badges are the opportunity to reinvent ePortfolio technology and practice, and create the conditions for an effective shift of the locus of power from institutions to individuals and communities. Shall we be able to seize this opportunity?

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

ELECTRONICPORTFOLIOS
Most everyone in the educational and professional spheres is familiar with the idea of a
portfolio. A portfolio allows one to create a collection of their learning and display their skills
and strengths in a variety of contexts. Such milestones as preparing for a job interview, or
entrance into, or exit from a professional education program, has traditionally involved the
creation of both a resume and a portfolio; which one would physically carry with them. Today
however, the way in which we can share our achievements is evolving, and the use of an
electronic portfolio is becoming more common place.
Electronic, or e-portfolios essentially serve the same purpose as a traditional physical
portfolio; and can even encompass the resume as well- to create a rounded showcase of an
individual. However, because the content is digitized, much more variety is possible. The
inclusion of videos, photos, and external links make the digital version of a portfolio much more
encompassing, and potentially more reflective of that which an individual is striving to present
about themselves. Because of the vast potential for variety, it is important to note that there are
several different types of e-portfolios. Kimball (2003) defined four types of web portfolios,
“working, academic, presentation, and professional” (p. 7). The working e-portfolio is essentially
a work in progress, where students might begin collecting and reflecting on their work, before
eventually honing in on specific skills, strengths, or works- to create one of the other three types.
The e-portfolio created in this course may be considered this type. Academic portfolios would
typically be tied to specific courses, or education programs. These offer the student a method of
displaying their learning, and the teacher a practical way to assess the learning. For example, in
an Internet for Educators class I took, the ongoing assignment was to add educational resources
related to my content area, to an e-portfolio, based on the various types of resources learned
about in the course. A presentation portfolio is slightly different, in that it tends to focus on
3. 3
ELECTRONICPORTFOLIOS
showcasing a very specific skill or topic. A possible example may be a photography student
creating a presentation portfolio about their own landscape photography. Lastly, the professional
portfolio is strictly related to career and job-seeking. This type could be thought of as marketing
yourself to potential employers. As an educator, mine might include a link to a geography
education resource page I created, copies of lesson plans, and other work samples. In the near
future, I mainly see myself using e-portfolios in two possible ways: a presentation type for my
graduate school exit requirement, and or a professional type for seeking employment in the field
of education.
Because there are different types of e-portfolios, and different uses for them, there is
some variability as to what should be included in one. Generally, however, most sources
(Goshen College, n.d.; Hovis, 2017; Oberpeul, n.d.) will concur on some basic components.
These include a biography and welcome page, educational background, professional background
and resume, awards/honors/special experiences, evidence of competencies-including artifacts
and reflections on why they are meaningful, and contact information. Essentially, regardless of
the type or purpose of an e-portfolio, an individual should strive to show who they are, and
showcase their skills as relevant to the purpose of the e-portfolio.
The use of e-portfolios today is beneficial regardless of the type used, or the context in
which they are used. According to Miller and Morgaine (2009), the many benefits of the use of
e-portfolios in education is that they,
“provide a rich resource for both students and faculty to learn about achievement of
important outcomes over time, make connections among disparate parts of the
4. 4
ELECTRONICPORTFOLIOS
curriculum, gain insights leading to improvement, and develop identities as learners or as
facilitators of learning” (p. 8).
In other words, e-portfolios can guide the entire process of teaching and learning. In the context
of the professional world, an article by Watty and McKay (2017) suggests that employers feel an
e-portfolio can add depth to the recruitment process. Benefits of e-portfolios identified by
employers include: getting a “feel” for and in depth understanding of the applicant, a body of
evidence pertaining to employability, and revealing much about applicants that would not be
possible in a traditional resume and interview. (Watty & McKay, 2017).
Overall, there are multiple uses for e-portfolios, a huge variety as to the content that can
be included, and many benefits to their use across multiple contexts. Though the evolution of
digital tools has changed how we might develop a portfolio, these changes have benefits as to the
depth that can be portrayed in showcasing the learning, skills, and employability of an
individual. Developing the skill of creating an e-portfolio will be immensely beneficial.
