5. IN HINDSIGHT
Issues
• Use of nicknames protects
identity but .. Who are you?
• Censorship on informal
comments. Eg avatar choice
• Pages not shared
• Harder to find work that has
been submitted
• Skill of other teachers using
the portfolio system
• Had to really push the
learners to comply
Benefits
• Rapid insight into learners
character and skills
• More interaction between
learners
• Allowed better integration of
project based learning across
units and teachers
• Learners can have a portfolio
to take with them
• I have a great record of how
much work was done this year
