The electronic portfolio

The use of the electronic portfolio is in the infancy stage of development and usage in the leadership program at Widener University. The University has committed the resources necessary for the implementation of an electronic portfolio through the acquisition and support of the TaskStream software program. This software is user-friendly and is provided to faculty and students. It is the vision of the authors that students develop their electronic portfolio in the Seminar in School Leadership course, continue using the electronic portfolio when students complete their signature assessments in courses in their programs, and, finally, use the electronic portfolio to document their work in their culminating practicum or internship. The electronic portfolio is the technology tool that will be utilized to collect data and assess students’ work on the standards throughout their leadership programs. The authors do not want the focus to be on the technology, but rather on the content of the electronic portfolios.
