This post is an introduction to the concept of e-portfolios, a topic that hasn't been at the forefront of ed tech development in recent years but which remains an important part of the field. "An ePortfolio is a collection of materials that documents student accomplishments. Unlike an 'analogue' portfolio, the digital element allows for the inclusion of different media (video, audio, infographics, etc), thereby providing students with various means of expression as well as the possibility to easily connect resources and ideas. But ePortfolios go further than that. A space for deep learning, ePortfolios enable the visualisation of one's own learning path. They can be seen as a "learning diary", where students reflect on their learning process."
