Faculty can support student ePortfolio building by taking the mystery out of the technical skills needed for basic website builds on popular platforms. Our homegrown strategy? ePortfolios on the fives. Students can build websites using five tools, design engaging pages following our three-by-five strategy, and better tackle course-based ePortfolios when they engage with ePortfolios five times during their semester. Oesch-Minor and Swinford have used these strategies in their courses and will share samples of student ePortfolios that demonstrate the wide range of ePortfolio designs students create using these simple guidelines.
The ePortfolio Community of Practice welcomes faculty and staff from any IU campus who engage in creating, implementing, assessing, and sustaining ePortfolios.
