Effective Practice with e-Portfolios: Five stories of e-portfolio implementation

Supporting the case studies in this toolkit are five video narratives which capture a flavour of the different approaches to wide-scale implementation strategies in the UK during the period 2008-2011. Background information for each video clip can be found in the relevant case study on the UK case studies page.

The stories told in the video clips explore different purposes for e-portfolios, ranging from personal development planning to the delivery and accreditation of short courses. Those involved in the planning, implementation and subsequent use of e-portfolios recount their experiences in their own words,  reflecting the perspectives of senior managers, e-learning coordinators, teaching fellows, technologists and learners.

Each video is available to download either as a Windows®, Media® or QuickTime® formatted files. Transcripts are available for users of screen readers. In addition, each video narrative has supporting notes which capture the full range of points made during filming. To access or play these resources, follow the links provided.
