Teacher Education

Teachers being prepared to perform in an increasingly digital world need to be experienced and competent in using digital technologies for their learning, evaluation and self-expression. In this pilot, students developed e-portfolios to demonstrate their learning, reflect on their learning and “market” themselves.

Teaching and Academic Growth

Evidence of teaching performance is often sought for purposes of hiring, promotion and tenure. Teaching portfolios are the accepted method for documenting evidence of achievement in teaching. This project supported the creation of teaching portfolios by UBC instructors. Parts of the teaching portfolio can form the ‘teaching’ component of an individual’s curriculum vitae. The teaching portfolio creation, development and storage process is being significantly enhanced and improved through the use of e-portfolios. The process of developing these electronic teaching portfolios is also contributing to good teaching by encouraging self-reflection, and by stimulating self-analysis and self-development.

Biology 240 is a lab course that uses guided inquiry. As part of the course assignments, students are required to fill in a lab journal at the end of each class. However, students were not required to reflect, over-all, on the entire process that is reflected in their journals. The e-portfolio project facilitates further reflection and integration of materials in the course and across other courses, and helps create meta-reflective individuals and peer-to-peer learning environments. This type of reflection encourages on-going dialogue and individual, instructor, course, and, potentially, program reflection.
