Supporting HE in FE – How Can e-Portfolios Help Me?
Wednesday 23 May 2007, in association with the JISC RSC Network
Introduction
How do learners undertake the processes of planning, capturing and reflecting on their own learning? How can technologies better support this process?
How can e-portfolios help learners to integrate learners’ formal, informal and self-directed learning in a meaningful way?
This one-day event, jointly coordinated between the JISC Regional Support Centres and the Higher Education Academy Subject Centres, was primarily intended for practitioners delivering HE programmes in Further Education Colleges.
This event took place at The Orange Studio, Birmingham and was not specific to any subject area.
