We are often asked about which e-portfolio system an organisation should use.

As mentioned in a previous post called “Which e-portfolio tool should I use“,  there is no simple answer.  Every case is different - what do you want to achieve? what e-learning systems do you already have in place? how confident are your learners in using ICT? will third parties need to access the system? …….

I was recently reminded about Ray Tolley’s “The Prime Directives of an ePortfolio“, which outlines ten criteria to consider when selecting an e-portfolio system to support life-long learning:

1.  Is it portable? - how will your learners be able to access or export their e-portfolio after they’ve finished being a learner with your organisation?

2.  Is it personal? - can the learner ‘customise’ the space to make it ‘theirs’, and is the environment appropriate to your learner’s age, learning/training requirements?

3.  Is it generic? - will the system be flexible enough to cater for a range of training/learning requirements?

4.  Is it web 2.0? - can your learners utilise what they are already doing on the internet eg RSS existing blogs or images into their e-portfolio?

5.  Is it Institute-free? - will your learners be able to access their e-portfolio without having to be going via other organisational systems ie the LMS or student portal?

6.  Is it ‘lite’? - will the e-portfolio be the ‘control-tower’ for the learner to manage their information and avoid becoming the ‘all encompassing respository’ or replacing will it simply be replacing their USB drive?

7.  Is it life-long? - will your learners have developed the skills and understanding to use their e-portfolio beyond their formal learning/training experience?

8.  Is it life-wide? - will they be encouraged to incorporate a variety of learning experiences ie informal and non-formal gained outside of their formal learning/training environment?

9.  Is it accessible? - does it comply with web accessibility (W3C) standards for people with disabilities?

10. Is it credible? - will third party users of the e-portfolio trust it as a reliable source of the information about your learners ie employers, course admission centres etc?

This isn’t an infinite list of considerations but are certainly a good starting point.

Are there any other criteria people should think about when they are selecting an e-portfolio system?

2010 E-portfolios funding for E-portfolio Implementation Trials

Funding will be made available again in 2010 for the E-portfolios Implementation Trials (http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/e-portfolios-funding), to investigate and identify the factors that contribute to the successful implementation of an e-portfolio system which supports learner transitions.

A total of $25,000 will be available for three trials; with the maximum amount available to any single RTO being $9,000.  The funded amount will need to be matched by the successful RTO, however, this can be in kind ie staff time, use of organisational resources.

Guidelines and applications forms will be available from: 24 March 2010 at http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/e-portfolios-funding

Applications close: 21 April 2010

Successful applicants notified: 14 May 2010

More information about other 2010 Australian Flexible Learning Framework funding opportunities is available here: http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/funding-opportunities

2009 E-portfolios Wrap-up

2009 has been a very busy year for the E-portfolios business activity.  Here is a brief summary:

·         VET E-portfolio Data Protection Assessment - this research involved undertaking a privacy impact assessment on the use of e-portfolios in the VET sector. Managers of learner information and learners were consulted to determine what is considered ‘personal and private information’ within an e-portfolio environment. A report detailing the findings plus the VET E-portfolio Privacy Guidelines will be available early in 2010 from http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/e-portfolios-resources

·         Verification of Learner Information Investigation - this research investigated the key benefits of existing learner information verification services and systems, both locally and internationally. It also identified the needs of ‘information consumers’ ie those individuals or organisations who utilise VET learner information (eg employers, recruitment agencies, professional associations, occupational licensing boards, tertiary admission centres etc). A report detailing the findings and recommendations of future work around verifying VET qualifications will be available early in 2010 from http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/e-portfolios-resources

·         E-portfolios Implementation Trials - these trials looked at the factors that contribute to the successful implementation of an e-portfolio system which supports learner transitions:

-          Coonara Community House has been working with Diploma of Children Services clients seeking RPL prior to undertaking their course. All learners were offered the opportunity of using an e-portfolio for their RPL assessment, however, mid-way into the trial only those learners who had received the additional support of developing their e-portfolio had put forward anything to be assessed by RPL.

-          Fire Protection Association Australia trialled the social networking software Ning to support fire protection industry service technicians gain recognition for their Extinguishing Agent Handling Licence competencies. As sole operators, the fire protection technicians were mentored to enable them to use the online environment effectively. Once engaged in the e-portfolio space, the often disparate and isolated workers have found the opportunity to professionally ‘network’ with other remote colleagues has been an added bonus is this method of managing the assessment process.

-          TAFE NSW Sydney Institute is using an e-portfolio to support the RPL process of Certificate III and IV in Hairdressing clients. Learners have quickly embraced the opportunity to present their ‘life’s work’ in a digital format, finding the experience to be self-empowering, while learning new (digital) skills. This trial also investigated the use of point of view or camera glasses to record ‘live’ workplace evidence.

·         Supporting a VET E-portfolios Community of Practice - October 2009 saw the inaugural VET E-portfolios Showcase held in Melbourne. Plans are underway for a 2010 national e-portfolios event in early November 2010, again in Melbourne, in collaboration with the Australian ePortfolio Project (higher education sector).

The E-portfolios website also contains a range of other e-portfolios resources, including the VET E-portfolios Roadmap – a national strategic plan designed to support the diverse requirements for e-portfolios in VET: http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/e-portfolios-resources

The following is a progress report received via email (17 November 2009) from Associate Professor Gillian Hallam on the Australian ePortfolio Project (AeP), and has been replicated here with Gillian’s permission:

Considerable progress has been made over the past few months in terms of the Australian ePortfolio Project – Stage 2 (AeP2), the national study of ePortfolio practice in higher education in Australia.  The focus of the AeP2 project is to explore the current scope of national and international ePortfolio communities of practice in order to identify the factors that contribute to their success and sustainability.  The findings from the research can then inform the strategies required to ensure the sustainability of ePortfolio communities in Australia.  Warm thanks to all the people, both in Australia and overseas, who have contributed to the AeP project over the past couple of years through the symposia and the range of data collection activities.

AeP website

The AeP website is a key resource to access documents associated with the project:  www.eportfoliopractice.qut.edu.au.

AeP2 Symposium papers

You may have attended the AeP2 Symposium in February 2009.   Papers from the plenary sessions are available online as podcasts (visit the AeP website, link to the Symposium program at http://www.eportfoliopractice.qut.edu.au/symposium2/program.jsp).

A series of papers presented in the track sessions will appear shortly in the online journal, Learning Communities: International Journal of Learning in Social Contexts, edited by Ruth Wallace. The journal publishes peer reviewed articles reporting original research and other issues relating to the learning of individuals, groups, communities and organisations.  The forthcoming issue of Learning Communities will include papers by Margaret Faulkner (UniSA) and Garry Allan (RMIT), Peter Rees Jones (JISC CETIS, UK), Beverley Oliver, Brian von Konsky, Sue Jones, Sonia Ferns and Beatrice Tucker (Curtin University), Gail Wilson and Rozz Albon (Bond University), Allison Miller (Australian Flexible Learning Framework) and Ruth Wallace (Charles Darwin University).  The journal website is http://www.cdu.edu.au/ehs/lrg/journal.html

ePortfolio Practice group site on ALTC Exchange

As part of the AeP2 project, a group site has been established within the ALTC Exchange – the ePortfolio Practice group http://www.altcexchange.edu.au/ .

To access the group, you need to become a member of the ALTC Exchange and then subscribe to the group.  Some guidance is provided on the AeP website on the page for the Australian ePortfolio community of practice,  if you do need some help. Link to http://www.eportfoliopractice.qut.edu.au/information2/community_of_practice/index.jsp.

During the course of the project, the ALTC Exchange migrated to a new platform, which unfortunately caused a number of technical problems.  We seem to have resolved all of these, and the group site is now up-to–date, with information on e-portfolio software,  e-portfolio events, e-portfolio resources and e-portfolio connections (links to other eportfolio communities, blogs etc).   The group site is designed to be a collaborative space, so you have the opportunity to add new resources or open the discussion on issues associated with ePortfolio practice.

There are a number of e-portfolio events listed under Upcoming Conferences and Seminars, which you may be interested in, from the event at RMIT on 4 December, and a range of seminars on many different aspects of e-portfolio practice in the UK, leading up to the EIfEL  ePortfolio 2010 conference in London in July.  Also in July 2010, the Association for Authentic, Experiential and Evidence-Based Learning (AAEEBL) will host its first annual conference in Boston, MA in the USA.

The Past Conferences and Seminars area of the site lists recent events, often with links to podcasts of the presentations, including the VET E-portfolios Showcase hosted by the Australian Flexible Learning Framework in Melbourne last month, and the UniSA 2009 ePortfolio forum held in September.

AeP2 Toolkit: ePortfolio Concept Guides

There has been considerable interest – locally and internationally – in the series of ePortfolio Concept Guides produced by the AeP2 team.  The concept guides seek to address the needs of the different stakeholder groups involved in the ePortfolio process:

ePortfolio concepts for learners

ePortfolio concepts for academic staff

ePortfolio concepts for information technology & teaching and learning support staff

ePortfolio concepts for institutional managers

ePortfolio concepts for employers, professional bodies and careers services

Recently, a sixth concept guide has been added to the series:

ePortfolio concepts for staff/employees.

Copies of the concept guides can be requested from the AeP2 project team.  There are also pdf files available to download from Australian ePortfolio Toolkit page of the AeP2 website at http://www.eportfoliopractice.qut.edu.au/information2/toolkit/.

The concept guides have been published under the terms of a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-ShareAlike licence, which allows you to make use of the publications.  The concept guides have been adapted for the VET sector by the Australian Flexible Learning Framework.  Visit http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/e-portfolios-resources to access these resources.

Looking into the future

The AeP2 project will conclude at the end of the year.  The project team is gratefully acknowledges the funding provided by the Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC), which has supported the research and publication activities.   Key events have been the AeP Symposia held in February 2008 and February 2009.

AeP2 Final Report

It is hoped that the final report for Stage 2 of the AeP project will be published in mid December.  Watch out for announcements about the release date.

AeP3 in 2010?

We have already received a number of enquiries about the possibility of an AeP Symposium in 2010.  The AeP symposia in 2008 and 2009 certainly raised a lot of interest in and engagement with ePortfolios,  developing a sense of community amongst those involved in ePortfolio learning.   However, the fact that the AeP activities have been supported by project funding means that a new model is required for future events.

Preliminary discussions have been held to scope a possible new model, with interest in continuing the relationship with ALTC and building the cross-sector interactions between higher education and vocational education and training (VET).  Plans are being forged for an ePortfolio symposium to be held in November 2010, co-hosted under the auspices of the ALTC Teaching Fellowship scheme and the Australian Flexible Learning Framework, which will focus on the themes of graduate employability, employability skills, learner mobility and recognition of prior learning.   More details will follow in the new year.

Please contact the AeP team if you have any queries about the project, by email at eportfoliopractice@qut.edu.au.

Living and working in the knowledge era means people expect to use technology when they are learning in the same way they use it in their everyday lives. Australian education and training organisations are realising the key benefits of incorporating information and communication technologies (ICT) and the internet to offer flexible learning opportunities to their students. These influences have given rise to a growing interest in the use of electronic portfolios (e-portfolios) to support personalised learning.

E-portfolios are learner centred, personal online spaces which support lifelong and life-wide learning by providing a mechanism for individuals to manage their existing knowledge and facilitate new learning opportunities. As a structured and purposeful collection of digital objects, e-portfolios enable individuals to dynamically create up-to-the-minute records of their own experiences, achievements and evidences of learning.

The ability to capture evidence through mobile devices (such as mobile phones, digital cameras, smart pens and point of view devices) offers improved opportunities for gaining RPL (recognition of prior learning) or presenting information for individuals moving between educational organisations.

Capturing and recording evidence of learning digitally through audio, video, and photographs, as well as, reflectively through blogs, provides authentic means of enabling workplace assessment, and helps fast track learning, especially for work-based apprenticeships and traineeships. Incorporating e-portfolios and mobile devices into learning experiences also provides new and exciting ways of re-engaging and retaining learners in traditional learning settings.

Allison Miller, the E-portfolios Business Manager, will be explaining how e-portfolios are being used to support flexible education and training options together with providing a means for learners to move easily between education, training and employment at the Learning Technologies 2009 Conference on 18-19 November 2009 in Mooloolaba.

Five presentations will be streamed live over the web this Friday 16 October from the VET E-portfolios Showcase 09.

Three trial teams have been funded by the Australian Flexible Learning Framework to identify the contributing factors and resources required to support the use of an e-portfolio system to help a learner move quickly and effectively between educational sectors, job roles and industry areas.

The trial teams will implement an e-portfolio system to generate, manage and validate evidence for learners from skills shortage areas, and/or to assist in the fast tracking of apprenticeships or traineeships.

The trial teams will produce resources which will be accessible from the E-portfolios Resources webpage early next year:

These trials build on, and broaden the scope of the Framework’s E-portfolios for RPL assessment (Recognition of Prior Learning) report.

The next update on these projects will be in mid to late October 2009.

The three E-portfolio Implementation trials are:

· Supportive Recognition – Coonara Community House, Victoria

This trial involves experienced childcare workers, with an existing Certificate III in Children Services and substantial employment history in the community services industry. Coonara Community House (CCH) will use the VETSA e-portfolio system, which is an instance of Mahara. Participants in this trial will be seeking RPL towards their Diploma of Children’s Services.

CCH are interested in trialling an e-portfolio system to compare how user friendly it is to the wiki they are currently using. Participants in this trial are being interviewed to determine whether they have reasonable ICT skills to participate in the trial.

As the participants will be reflecting on the evidence they upload into their e-portfolio, the students will also receive credit towards a unit of competence covering reflection.

The small group of students nominated for this trial will start using their e-portfolio shortly, after participating in a face to face induction. This induction will be followed by regular on campus workshops to support the process, as well as communication through instant messaging ie MSN, email, telephone.

Meanwhile, the staff involved in this trial are developing their own e-portfolios, together with developing resources for both the assessors to understand how to use the e-portfolio, as well as helpful notes on how the e-portfolio works and how to upload evidence to the e-portfolio for the students.

• Skills Capture – Fire Protection Association Australia, Victoria

Due to regulatory change in this industry, this trial will involve field based fire technicians working with service fire protection equipment to gain RPL towards six Extinguishing Agent Handling Licence competencies

This trial will use an implementation of a Ning (free downloadable social networking site) as an evidence records based e-portfolio system.

Staff involved in managing this trial are currently customising the Ning for the trial, whilst using another instance of a Ning to manage the trial process themselves.

Participants will be encouraged and guided to use reflection, recorded conversations, video and Point of View (POV) camera glasses to capture their skills.

The trial will enable the Fire Protection Association to convert its paper-based RPL process into an electronic format, using a combination of online, telephone and face-to-face communication and assessment techniques to mentor their clients through this process.

As the fire technicians’ work is on the road and very mobile, participants will receive their training to use the Ning online with phone support, and will investigate whether the Ning is an effective online environment to support the RPL process at a distance

• Skills recognition using e-portfolios – TAFE NSW (Sydney Institute), New South Wales

This trial will also use the VETSA e-portfolio system to support existing RPL services offered to learners in the Certificates III and IV in Hairdressing.

As Hairdressing is a very skills based industry, with little paper evidence, this trial will use POV camera glasses to collect workplace evidence.

Participants in this trial are investigating how an e-portfolio can support apprentices to undertake more of their training in the workplace, whilst reducing the number of workplace visits for the assessors.

Students have started setting up their e-portfolio, with some students receiving ‘mini-workshops’ on how to upload files to their e-portfolios, whilst other students, with existing online experience ie Facebook users, are experimenting with the e-portfolio system themselves. This is supported by regular weekly contact with the students, and the students are keeping a ‘diary’ of their progress.

The staff involved in this project have received training in how to use the e-portfolio system, have been developing their own e-portfolios and are currently developing “a helpful hints guide for employers”. Some of their training resources can be found on the Sydney Institute’s “E-portfolios – Getting started with Mahara” wiki. They are also are working with an auditor to ensure that the process will meet AQTF2007 quality requirements.

Below are some useful resources to investigate to help you and your organisation adopt e-portfolios.

Developing e-portfolios for VET
This report was released by the Australian Flexible Learning Framework in 2007 and is an environmental scan of e-portfolio use relevant to the Australian vocational education and training (VET) system at that time, as well as the identification of potential case scenarios. Issues regarding standards, interoperability and policy areas for implementation are also identified and discussed.
http://e-standards.flexiblelearning.net.au/docs/vet-eportfolio-report-v1-0.pdf

JISC Infonet E-portfolios (http://www.jiscinfonet.ac.uk/e-portfolios)
JISC, in the United Kingdom (UK), has developed some really great resources about e-portfolios, including their ‘Effective Practice with e-Portfolios’.
http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/themes/elearning/eportfolios/effectivepracticeeportfolios.aspx

e-Assessment: Guide to effective practice
The UK’s Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) have developed this document, which discusses e-testing and e-portfolios.
http://www.efutures.org/docs/guide.pdf

Educause & E-portfolios : (http://www.educause.edu/ELI/Archives/EPortfolios/5524?page_id=5524)
Educause has a number of resources on e-portfolios, including “An Overview of E-Portfolios”, which defines and categorises e-portfolios, offers examples, reviews and addresses adoption issues.

You can also find additional resources at the E-portfolios website here:
http://www.flexiblelearning.net.au/content/e-portfolios-resources

The SA Framework Unit has an instance of the Mahara e-portfolio as part of their VET SA Teaching & Learning resources.

The VET SA E-portfolio has just been upgraded to version 1.15, which offers registered users a lot more options, including ‘public’ views.

I’ve been using the VET SA E-portfolio to collect information about using Mahara, as well as developing some mock up examples for demonstrations and workshops.  The public view option has allowed me to now share this with others for the first time.

To view this information:

• My information about using Mahara - http://eportfolio.vetsa.net.au/view/view.php?id=23
• My VETSA E-portfolio profile & created views - http://eportfolio.vetsa.net.au/user/view.php?id=24

I am still exploring the other new features and would like others to share what they are doing within their e-portfolio, for others to see and learn from.

The VET E-portfolio Roadmap, a national strategic plan designed to support the diverse requirements for e-portfolios in vocational education and training (VET), was recently released by the national training system’s e-learning strategy, the Australian Flexible Learning Framework (Framework).

Developed from extensive research and national stakeholder consultations, the Roadmap aims to assist in the development of a national standards-based framework to support the use of e-portfolios across VET.

The Roadmap outlines nine strategic goals with a focus on portability, verification, privacy, ownership, access control, infrastructure, storage, embedding and transitions, and will result in three key outputs for the sector:

1. National guidelines for VET managers of learner information.
2. Functional specifications for implementers and developers of e-portfolio tools and systems.
3. Strategies for embedding e-portfolios in VET.

The continued uptake of e-portfolios in VET needs to be accompanied by professional development, adequate business structures and support.

E-portfolios are becoming more and more popular, which makes developing a set of national standards, policies and business rules even more important. The Framework’s strategic approach to e-portfolios will help ensure e-portfolios provide efficiencies in supporting lifelong learning.

The Framework will now work with teachers and trainers, registered training organisations, and learners as well as business, industry and e-portfolio developers to ensure a successful national roll-out of the Roadmap.

People interested in joining the e-portfolio discussion can:

• Join the VET E-portfolios Community of Practice.
• Subscribe to the E-portfolios blog.
• Subscribe to the VET E-portfolios mailing list by emailing Allison.Miller@tafesa.edu.au and writing “Subscribe: VET E-portfolios mailing list” in the Subject line.

The full VET E-portfolio Roadmap is available on the Framework’s E-portfolios Resources website.
