11. different kinds of E portfolios
There are several kinds of portfolios. An E-Portfolio
that is required for licensure can be considered an
assessment portfolio. This means that the aim of
this portfolio is to assist you to improve your
teaching practices. Improved teaching practices can
occur through a process that allows you to assess
your performance through artifacts and reflections.
The process of developing an E-Portfolio includes
opportunities for making judgements about your
performance and setting new goals to improve your
performance.
