Introduction

The university provides a web-based Workflow (e-portfolio) system which follows a user-centred learning model. It enables students to collect and organise their media files, publish their content selectively to different audiences, share information about themselves in user communities, and monitor and reflect on their learning progress.

The Workflow (e-portfolio) system has particular relevance for PPD activities, as it gives users a flexible framework for capturing reflection, with comprehensive privacy, sharing and feedback options. It is also ideal for documenting work projects, with a personal file repository, collaborative spaces, multimedia support and a drag-and-drop interface for designing pages.

Who should attend?

This workshop is for all staff who are interested in using Workflow (e-portfolios) to support their students' learning and personal and professional development.
