Introduction to ePortfolios
Creating an ePortfolio can be an exciting and informative learning experience.
If you have never created one before, you might be feeling a bit overwhelmed, especially if you’re not sure what it is or why you are doing it.
We’re here to help with information about ePortfolios, writing reflections, and support for using the technology available at KPU to help you create a beautiful and creative digital portfolio.
“We don’t learn from experience, we learn from
thinking about experience”
– John Dewey
There are different types of eportfolios you can create.
ePortfolios can be used to document the process and/or the product of any learning experience whether it be academic, professional, or personal. The artefacts and reflections you include should align with the type of portfolio you’re designing.
