Book review: The educational potential of eportfolios


I have just finished reading "The Educational Potential of Eportfolios" by Lorraine Stefani, Robin Mason & Chris Pegler. All I can say is "wow", this book ties together the major issues around the use and development of eportfolios as an assessment method, a learning process and a showcase tool.

The book examines some key themes such as an eporfolio as a tool for learning and reflection. How to design courses that embed eportfolios as a learning method and as a formative and summative assessment.
