Portfolios Invite Reflection--From Students and Staff.
Hebert, Elizabeth A.
Educational Leadership, v49 n8 p58-61 May 1992

The assessment process became more meaningful through using learning experience forms and "portfolio evenings," in which children present their portfolios to their parents. (MLH)
