21. ePortfolio Management...
ePortfolios do not add to your workload. Instead you will need
to change some of the ways you:
• give feedback
• facilitate reflection
• engage students in self and peer assessments
and
• you need to adapt learning and teaching so that
the process and outcomes can be shared
digitally within the eportfolio platform.
