Conversations: Student Portfolio SIG
Exploring the affordance of student portfolios – ePortfolio SIG
Why an ePortfolio Special Interest Group (SIG)?
As a sub-group of Technology Demonstrators, the ePortfolio SIG aims to explore, share, and co-create understandings around the affordances of student portfolios. It provides opportunities for participants in all university sections to come together and aligns with the USQ Academic Plan objectives including First Year Experience, Employability, Work Integrated Learning and digital literacy.
The SIG aims to explore different platforms for portfolios including the two currently used at USQ: Mahara and WordPress
