Portfolio as Story
"A portfolio tells a story.
It is the story of knowing. Knowing
about things... Knowing oneself...
Knowing an audience... Portfolios are
students' own stories of what they
know, why they believe they know it,
and why others should be of the same
opinion.”
(Paulson & Paulson, 1991, p.2)

Why Mobile is a Must
• Kids today are captivated by the personalization and
socialization of online tools--the ability to build large
networks of friends; share their thoughts, feelings, and goals;
and communicate as they wish. …And not only is it possible,
it's possible anytime and anywhere, via a plethora of devices
and widely available cellular and WiFi networks.
• The upshot is, these digital natives now have in their hands
the tools to shape their own education in once unimagined
ways. They have the ability to interact with other learners at
their convenience, with differences in time and place
presenting no hurdle. They can research, on the spot, any
topic of interest. And they can capture the
moment, whether it's in a picture, a video, or
a blog entry.

E-Portfolio Components
< Multiple Portfolios for
Multiple Purposes
-Celebrating Learning
-Personal Planning
-Transition/entry to courses
-Employment applications
-Accountability/Assessment
< Multiple Tools to Support
Processes
-Capturing & storing evidence
-Reflecting
-Giving & receiving feedback
-Planning & setting goals
-Collaborating
-Presenting to an audience
< Digital Repository
(Becta, 2007; JISC, 2008)

What functions can be achieved with mobile
devices for each of these processes?
• Capturing & storing evidence - this evidence of learning can be in the
form of text, images, audio or video
• Reflecting - “the heart and soul of a portfolio” - this reflection could
be captured in real time in different formats: writing, voice capture
(and voice-to-text conversion), video capture and digital stories
• Giving & receiving feedback - one of the most effective uses of a
portfolio is to review a learner’s work and providing feedback for
improvement
• Planning & setting goals - a very important part of the portfolio
process is personal development planning and setting goals for
achievement
• Collaborating - learning is a social activity - technology provides new
forms of collaboration
• Presenting to an audience - at specific points in the learning process,
a learner may put together a presentation of their learning outcomes
for an audience, either real or virtual
