What can we learn about ePortfolio programs by listening to graduates?
AAC&U 2017 Presentation Abstract: The ePortfolio community has long been dedicated to documenting, analyzing, and communicating the value of ePortfolios in higher education. But what happens to our students after they graduate? How do alumni perceive the value of their ePortfolio experience? Do they incorporate evidence-based, multimodal, and metacognitive practices into their daily life and work, and if so in what ways? What other insights might they share? This session will present the prominent themes that emerged during interviews and email exchanges with graduates from Northeastern University and Florida State University. The session will also include time for attendees to explore how they might incorporate alumni outreach into their own ePortfolio work and research.
