Led by Gordon Joyes, University of Nottingham and Lisa Gray, JISC Executive

The session will introduce the e-portfolio implementation toolkit which is the output from a JISC-funded e-portfolio implementation study which ran from 2010–2011 and was led by the University of Nottingham. This toolkit is designed to support those involved in the implementation of e-portfolios in higher (HE) and further education (FE) and work based learning: practitioners planning to use e-portfolios in curriculum design and middle and senior managers addressing strategy and policy issues and challenges relating to the introduction of technologies for learning.

Although e-portfolio use is now widespread, embedding their use on a large scale is still relatively new.  As a result the design and content of the toolkit have drawn on the experiences of its case study contributors: 12 UK, 4 Australian and 3 New Zealand partner institutions. It aims to:

• Identify salient messages from examples of large-scale e-portfolio implementations to help inform future practice and strategy;
• Articulate models of implementation;
• Support a range of users in identifying and addressing issues relevant to their context.
