Using Portfolios of Student Work as Teaching and Learning Tools (Workshop) Nov 29 or 30

Creative artists, teacher educators, and many other faculty from a range of disciplines challenge students to compile examples of their work into portfolios. These portfolios not only reveal the creative process but offer students the opportunity to develop discipline-dependent writing experience, demonstrate learning in novel ways, and support meta-cognitive reflection. In this workshop, we will explore the elements of learning portfolios, while reflecting on ways to effectively integrate this teaching and learning tool into a range of courses. We will also consider how select digital tools can support the development and presentation of portfolios.
