SF State is gearing up for the AACU conference to be held in our home city in January. We are offering two presentations that relate to our ePortfolio adventure. 

Friday, January 28, 10:30-11:45 am
E-Portfolios for Global Learning: Connecting High Impact Practices, General Education and Authentic Assessment within the Metro Academies Program
Enabling students to be successful citizens and create sustainable change in an increasingly global society rests on relevant curriculum, integrated instruction and a meaningful interaction with technology. This session is designed for administrators and faculty to develop a deeper understanding of how ePortfolios can be used in their institutions as well as the Metro Academies (partnerships of 2-year and 4-year institutions) model of utilizing high-impact practices to engage and challenge their students.

Growing an ePorticulture: Steps to Planting and Sustaining Deeper Learning and Assessment with ePortfolios

This interactive workshop will share practical strategies for starting, sustaining, and harvesting evidence of student learning through an ePortfolio program. Drawing on six years of experience working “from the ground up” at San Francisco State University, we will share examples and resources from our ePortfolio projects. Themes with supporting case stories will include: Successful "planting" tips with getting-started steps and examples of discipline specific portfolios; maintaining and growing, with examples of "mapping" and "tagging" student work to learning outcomes at course, program, and institutional levels; harvesting student work through Capstone courses and strategies for the use of portfolios in program reviews.
