WE EDUCATE CULTURAL SECTOR
LEADERS AND PARTICIPANTS TO MAKE
A DIFFERENCE IN COMMUNITIES.
The Arts and Administration Program at the University of Oregon informs
cultural sector administration, policy, research, and education. We prepare
and inspire cultural leaders based on the belief that they must be familiar
with the social, economic, environmental, political, technical and ethical
contexts in which arts and culture flourish.

What is an eportfolio?
WHAT IS AN EPORTFOLIO? An eportfolio is an electronic collection of evidence
that shows your learning journey over time. Portfolios can relate to specific
academic fields or your lifelong learning. Evidence may include writing
samples, photos, videos, research projects, observations by mentors and
peers, and/or reflective thinking. The key aspect of an eportfolio is your
reflection on the evidence, such as why it was chosen and what you learned
from the process of developing your eportfolio. Adapted from Philippa Butler’s
“Review of the Literature on Portfolios and Eportfolios” (2006), page
2005-2007
ePortfolios enhances linkages between professional preparation,
academic coursework, and technological applications by supporting
students, courses, and project advancement through tutoring, project
evaluation, and
inter-departmental collaboration.

• Student Learning Objective Statement
For each course, students will state their learning objectives, and provide evidence
and reflections on the process and the final product. At quarterly advising
sessions, students will show these updates on their learning eportfolio blogs.
• Final Project/Evidence: Consists of the project document, if applicable, and if
possible, a visual component of either the project or the process. This is likely to
take the form of a picture (such as a screenshot, cover page, presentations, etc),
process document (first iteration), early blog entry, etc. But it could also be a
video, or other. This will likely take the form of a pdf or word document of their
final research paper or project for the course, which will be attached to their
course page.
• Reflections: Along with the evidence, student should provide narrative on the
following: Objectives of project; what did you do? Describe and interpret - How did
you create it? How did your thinking change as a result?

By developing our ePortfolios in AAD, and sharing our learning,
resources, and research with a broad audience in an accessible
and open fashion, we are putting social capital development
into practice through a transmedia platform.
