ePortfolios@edu: What We Know, What We Don’t Know, and Everything In-Between
Edited by Mary Ann Dellinger and D. Alexis Hart
Copy edited by Don Donahue. Designed by Mike Palmquist.
This edited collection offers a comprehensive examination of best practices in creating, implementing, and assessing an ePortfolio program. Contributors to the volume (ePortfolio practitioner/scholars from four continents) share triumphs and lessons learned from a first-person perspective. Designed as a go-to resource for ePortfolio novices, seasoned practitioners, and curious explorers alike, ePortfolios@edu allows readers to close the book and immediately apply whatever information they found most appropriate for their course, program, and/or institution. Towards that end, contributors embed screenshots and diagrams within their essays, and addend their chapters with relevant timelines, prompts, rubrics, and other ready-for-use materials. Reflecting the emblematic interconnectedness of ePortfolio development, ePortfolios@edu complements other publications on ePortfolios by offering new perspectives and a collection of resources that will be of great value to the expanding network of ePortfolio practitioner/scholars.
