Digital Storytelling within an e-Portfolio 24/2/2010

What can e-Portfolio allow?

  • Allows student's voice to be heard
  • Not just to show outcomes of learning which can be very limiting
  • Way of showing learning journey
  • engage students in their learning
  • how outcome was reached
  • learning journeys
  • learning journal
  • formative assessment
  • reflective statements

Key Competencies can be built in

The technology DOES NOT have to be complicated (able to use inbuilt computer tool such as camera & microphone) - able to use still photos/video

Can be used for ALL curriculum areas - do we need test - can just look at e-Portfolio
