Kelly Rabe shared information on interviews she had with administrators in Holland, West Ottawa, and Zeeland about electronic portfolios.  Discussion followed. 

 

Students shared work they had done on their electronic portfolios.  Progress was evident and many good ideas were exchanged.

 

Kristi reported that the Education Department Assessment Committee, of which she is a member, asked her how much instruction the faculty would need to implement electronic portfolios in their classes.  It was decided to pursue the idea of presenting the electronic portfolio concept to the Education faculty and answer any questions they may have.  Since our committee is simply exploring ways to create electronic portfolios and the reasons for doing this, input from the Education faculty would be extremely helpful.  I will ask Professor Wessman if the committee could make a short presentation on Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2003 at 3:30

 

Next meeting will be either Monday, Jan. 6 or Tuesday, Jan 7 at 5:30.
