week 11

The chapter talks about the use of digital portfolios for students. It focuses on what decisions to make in order to use the portfolio for assessing the students. Also it talks about how to share the contents of the portfolio what kind of technologies to use within the portfolio.

It seems as if it is quite an outdated article. Technology has improved quite a bit since this article was written. I have some useful suggestions. I think a good way to share the material of the portfolio with students and parents would be to use secure databases. A good way to publish the contents would be to use websites. (pretty much what webct is doing).

I do agree to the fact that using a portfolio is a very useful way to represent the students' performance. I personally have a digital portfolio
