Welcome to the inaugural issue of the AAEEBL ePortfolio Review (AePR)! Designed to provide space
for emerging thinking about ePortfolio research and practice, as well as a publication opportunity
for those working in and with ePortfolio, the AePR focuses on timely, important topics written by
leaders in the field. The articles may focus on a current controversy in our community that perhaps
cannot be quickly or expeditiously addressed through a careful research process or on specific topics
of interest to the wider ePortfolio community (for instance, assessment, high impact practices, etc.).
As such, we welcome articles that are initial reports on research, case studies of ePortfolio practices
and pedagogies, and think-pieces that move the field forward. We want to ensure that the AePR is
relevant to you and your work with ePortfolios so we also welcome ideas for future issue themes and
topics - let us know if you have ideas!
