e-portfolios
Online work collections
E-portfolios are digital collections of work samples, achievements, and reflections that demonstrate skills or learning over time.
Students compile e-portfolios to showcase academic progress; professionals use them to display credentials and projects to potential employers.
Unlike paper portfolios, e-portfolios can include multimedia—videos, links, interactive elements: Her e-portfolio included writing samples and design work from three internships.
