Our SF State team has just returned from Providence, RI and the Connect to Learning Summer Institute (July 12-15, 2012.)

Savi Malik and Alycia Shada reported new inspiration about the national research and ePortfolio models that are emerging from this project. Below is a presentation from Helen Chen (Stanford)-- sharing preliminary research findings from the C2L Core Survey indicating the emerging evidence of the impact of portfolios on student engagement and learning. SF State's Metro students participated in this national survey.

We are just back from a great time in New Orleans learning more about General Education and Assessment: New Contexts, New Cultures February 23-25, 2012 where we presented:

The Promise of e-Portfolios: Creating a New Culture of Assessment
Workshop co-facilitators will share strategies for starting and sustaining an undergraduate e-portfolio program that collects evidence of student learning. Given the chronically poor outcomes of many of today’s college students, e-portfolios can operate as a high-impact practice providing students and educators with a tool to improve academic success both within and across two-and four-year institutions. Co-facilitators and participants will discuss key steps to mapping student work to learning outcomes at course, program, and institutional levels.
