The document discusses portfolio assessment, which involves students collecting a selection of their work over time to demonstrate their progress and achievements. Key points include: - Portfolios contain purposefully selected student work and reflections that show growth. Students are involved in selecting pieces. - Portfolios provide qualitative evidence of learning across different skills and can focus on specific areas. They enable students to demonstrate learning to others. - Building a portfolio engages students in self-assessment and goal-setting. It gives teachers a comprehensive profile of each student's abilities. - Portfolios should include core required items as well as optional student-selected items. Dates, drafts, and reflections are important elements.
