Description

Historically, students and professionals have used bulky binders, folders or a combination of the two as a repository for assignments, projects and products they have developed over a period of time. Va-LEND trainees are going digital and are creating electronic portfolios (e-portfolios) to replace the traditional notebook portfolio. The self-reflection enabled by the e-Portfolio demonstrates the power of engagement through an interactive electronic medium.
