Syllabus Article about ePortfolios. This article by Trent Batson discusses why ePortfolios are a buzz topic in higher education and provides abundant links to much more information about their use at many institutions.

Weblogs and ePortfolios can be valuable tools for both students and instructors; students can use them to document their learning projects and faculty can use them to facilitate and document their instruction. To add one more loop, faculty can use ePortfolios to demonstrate both their use of learning objects and the use by others of learning objects that they have created. All of three of these electronic tools can be applied to further the scholarship of instruction.

The EDUCAUSE National Learning Infrastructure Initiative made ePortfolios a key theme for 2002 (see the enclosure). [EduResources--Higher Education Resources Online]
