Supporting ePortfolio Champions across KPU
In Spring 2023, the Teaching and Learning Commons launched a pilot initiative granting single course time releases to ePortfolio Champions across KPU. These time releases were in recognition of both the time needed for faculty to implement ePortfolio initiatives within their respective programs as well as the support that may be required from expertise within the Commons. Initially, 4 faculty time releases were offered, but 6 faculty answered the call. Not wanting to leave abandon any champions or inititatives, KPU’s AVP Teaching and Learning, Leeann Waddington, sought and recieved additional funding for all 6 new Champions. To learn more about the pilot cohort of this initiative, please click here.
The success of the Spring 2023 pilot inspired additional time releases to be added for Fall 2023. Once again, the response to the call exceeded expectations. Click here for information about the ePortfolio Champions and initiatives of this new cohort.
In Spring 2024, the TL Commons offered four more time releases to new and returning faculty ePortfolio Champions. Our latest Champions represent a variety of different programs, including Counselling, Accounting, Interior Design, and Sustainable Agriculture.

A new year brings new inspiration for eportfolio advancement at KPU with the Spring 2025 cohort of ePortfolio Champions. From using eportfolios as a way to explore Generative AI through a critical lens to expanding on previous years’ projects, this group has some exciting ideas to share. Click here for more details.
