The Future of Electronic Portfolio Technology. At ePortfolio 2003, I presented a keynote address on the future of electronic portfolio technology. That talk used to be posted on the AAHE website, but, sadly, AAHE is no more. I'm posting it here.
Yesterday, at WCET's eduTools meeting on ePortfolio software, I gave a brief talk that updated and expanded on the ideas from what is now almost three years ago. I used a concept map to sketch out my current sense of where things are going. My first presentation in some time where I didn't use PowerPoint, I think the concept map format worked well for exploring an open, complex topic in a fairly informal setting.
I opened the talk by sharing my envolving sense of how portfolio technology (whether that's a kind of tool or a network of tools linked by the common activity) relates to other learning technologies, particularly social software tools. I'm coming to see three levels of self-representational activity and tools, which are represented in the table below. (I'm still thinking about how to represent this well visually.)
