This is a tool recommended by a Webhead for creating an eportfolio. Sign up is free and there is a special section for educators. Like many new online tools, this may eventually become not-free bu in the meantime it looks like a good place to collect and display student work. Allows for all types of media and you can organize in a variety of ways. Media can be uploaded from your computer or from various social media you use. A little slow and clunky, but usable.

A way to organize your students' eportfolios. Requires a download to create an archive.

Another site that might be useful for making eportfolios. This page has tutorials, directions for many of its features.

ePorfolios and laptops used to enhance learning

"An ePorfolio allows for building in reflective activities for learners and staff, through blog functions and the creation of 'Critical incident diaries' in which users reflect on their learning and experiences over a given period or activity. For example, this could be reflections on how a student dealt with a problem, or processed some new information on a given topic. This can become a two way process with a tutor or peer providing feedback via the same diary." A very short article speaking to the notion of "reflective learning." A must-read for all teachers.

Make it your own. But know there are tons of resources available."
