Ok, so this week I look into a few e-portfolios. I found that a lot of colleges and universities offer students a free one if you attend that school. While looking around I also found that a lot of places charge you for them. I was not interested in paying for one and was very grateful to a classmate for informing the class that Texas A&M Commerce offers a free e-portfolio for it's students and also provided instructions on how to find them on the web-site. The e-portfolio that TAMUC offers is very easy to use and navigate. I have only just started to set mine up so I am still learning about it, but so far it seem fairly simple. I'm still not real sure what I will use this for other than this class, but maybe as time goes on and I learn more I will see this as a more useful tool.
If I was going to ask my student to use an e-portfolio I would have to do some major research to find one that is free and very simple. I teach 5 and 6 year olds and some only started using a computer this year with me. So I would be interested to know if there is one out there geared towards young children.
