Full Description
This issue presents the range of current systems, examines various design considerations associated with them, provides examples of models in place at selected institutions, and stresses the importance for student affairs leadership of creating a college- or university-wide e-portfolio delivery system.

E-Portfolios are increasing important in higher education, both in the U.S. and around the world. They are being designed and used to support the learning process through reflection, in assessment-based systems that support institutional accreditation, an in so-called showcase e-portfolios that support students' career development and employment.
