There are a number of encouraging signs that the interest in e-portfolios is growing particularly with respect to how they can support vocational learning.
JISC has just announced that they will be funding a number of research projects about e-portfolios. One is a study to 'identify,explore, document and analyse examples of large scale e-portflio implementations' with the outcome to produce models and guidance materials on effective practice in this area 'aimed at different stakeholder groups.' The other project aims to recruit ten people from the HE/FE sectors with varying experience of e-portfolios to review how e-portfolios are being used and make recommendations for their future use.
We really welcome these developments both because e-portfolios is an under research area and because anything that empowers centres and organisations, to make decisions about what is the best e-portfolio for them is welcomed
