Classroom Practice: From Worn-Out to Web-Based--Better Student Portfolios
Diehm, Celleste
Phi Delta Kappan, v85 n10 p792 Jun 2004
In this article, the author suggests solutions to unleash student creativity. The article focuses on the author's idea for electronic portfolios, Web-based collections of a student's work. To put her idea into practice, the author created an electronic portfolio project that spanned five 90-minute class sessions (about one session every week or two). The first step was for students to create an opening page for their portfolios using the software of their choice. One of the advantages of electronic portfolios, the author claims, is that students can create them using any software program with which they are comfortable, whether that be MS Publisher, MS PowerPoint, MS Word, or any other program. This article further describes the benefits of electronic portfolios.
