This article discusses the use of ePortfolios in interdisciplinary online adult degree programs at two universities. Whereas one university uses the ePortfolio only in a capstone course, the other institution introduces the ePortfolio in an introductory course that focuses on goal setting and then has students add content to the ePortfolio in the final course of their program of study. Additionally, one institution implemented the ePortfolio for assessment purposes, while the other did not. The study of these cases explores the different approaches to ePortfolio use in two interdisciplinary adult degree programs, as well as the benefits of ePortfolio use within this student population.<\/p>\n
In this article, the authors explored the different approaches of e-Portfolio use in interdisciplinary online adult undergraduate degree programs offered at two universities in the United States. Two cases were presented: at university A, the ePortfolio was used in the capstone course \u201cto assess student-learning outcomes\u201d (p.133); at university B, e-Portfolios were used in \u201can introductory course that focuses on goal setting and then has students add content to the ePortfolio in the final course of their program of study\u201d (p. 129). The authors provided a detailed account of how e-Portfolios were used at each university; outlined the benefits of e-Portfolio use for adult learners, a non-traditional group of students that made up a significant portion of the undergraduate population; and shared what institutions should consider when implementing an ePortfolio system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
