Passaic County Community College conducted a soft launch of an institutional ePortfolio initiative over 18 months to gather data and assess student learning. They piloted ePortfolios in writing-intensive courses, an Early Childhood Education program, and with volunteer faculty. Assessment found that students using ePortfolios in writing courses had a 15% higher pass rate on writing exams than the general student population. Lessons learned included the need for faculty and students to see value in ePortfolios, for ongoing formative use instead of just summative assessments, and adequate training and technical support.
