Albertus' ePortfolio Initiative:

 

"During my first year of using eportfolio in Invitation to Insight, a first-year student course, eportfolio enabled students to make connections between the course content and their lives outside of class through the creation of eportfolio pages.  In addition to conventional essay writing and class discussion, eportfolio gave the students an opportunity to explore information from class in a personalized, audio-visual manner, with which our students are much more comfortable. Eportfolio, in my assessment, added a level of depth and personalization to course material that had not been readily available prior to eportolio's introduction." - Michael Nordquist, Assistant Professor of History and Political Science

 

 

"The best part of ePortfolio is that it provides students with a central location to store important information needed to write an effective resume.  The resume tool is a hub for processing skill development, academic knowledge, and details about work and internship environments." - Suzanne Yurko-Wall, Director of Career Services

 


 Dr. Joan Venditto, Director of Education Programs

 

"The ePortfolio provides our undergraduate teacher preparation program with just the right tool for enabling our teacher candidates to collect artifacts electronically and to reflect at the beginning, mid-point, and conclusion of their preparation program on their development of career goals and a philosophy of education, on their general education background, and on their growth in content knowledge and pedagogical skills, as well as their field and clinical experiences, and their ability to assess student learning as a result of instruction.  At the same time, the ePortfolio provides our Education Programs unit with data sets that, when analyzed, assess program, faculty, and candidates.  Additionally, the ePortfolio provides candidates with a useful document for viewing by prospective employers when they are ready to pursue teaching positions."

  "The ePortfolio is a great tool and offers a lot to students that they should take advantage of. The ePortfolio is not only for storing some of our best papers and assignments in school, but it also helps us in creating a resume as we begin our careers."

  "The best part of ePortfolio is that it prepares students for the real world once they are out of college. It allows them to gain new knowledge using technology that  enhances skills, no matter what field of study one ventures into."

 

 Erin Boyd, Class of 2015

"The ePortfolio is a great tool that helps students with all of their online information. It allows students to organize their college materials and display them in a professional way."
