Using ePortfolios as Digital Assessment Tools at the Secondary Level

What is an ePorfolio

▪ Digital collection of student work that provides a visual presentation

▪ Includes the samples of work and records growth and achievement ▪ May be a systematic collection of work across subject areas or may target a specific subject area, topic or learning goal ▪ It is very secure and private – it can only be accessed by identified users with a username and login ▪ Every student registered will have an ePortfolio ▪ All information is stored on the local SD72 server

Progression of the ePortfolio

Assessment for Learning

• Ongoing assessment
• Collaborative

Communicate Student Learning

• Rubrics vs “Final Marks”
• Assessment samples vs Standard Report Cards
• Developed a local online Rubric Maker that is inline with

the Ministry learning outcomes for each subject level in each grade up to grade 8

ePortfolios

• Pilot Project
• Expectation to upload two learning samples a month

reflecting what has been identified as the learning behavior for that month

• Include “real time” demonstration of learning through

pictures and reflections

▪ The ePortfolio is a Pilot Project which is a number of years in the making. ▪ To the left is a progression of how we reached this point

Using ePortfolio as a Place for Reflection of Learning

Questions to Ask: What are you learning? How can you get better? What is the next step? Rubrics don’t always have to be included. Student reflection can be enough.

Note: This definitely MUST be taught so that students will reflect meaningfully.

• Science – How has the development of

Campbell River affected the salmon?

advancement of civilization?

• English –Why are we studying Shakespeare

Due to declining enrollment, many of the elective courses are running a mulit-grade course. Many of the senior students are working on Independent Studies as a method of working at a higher level.
