"This book clearly articulates the foundations of an
educational vision that is distinctively supported by e-portfolio
use, drawing on work in philosophy, sociology, higher and adult
education, and e-learning research. It is academically rigorous and
accessible not only to scholars in a range of disciplines who might
study or use e-portfolios. It surveys the state-of-the-art of
international e-portfolio practice and suggests future directions
for higher educational institutions in terms of curriculum,
assessment, and technology. This resource is written for scholars,
support staff, instructional technologists, academic
administrators, and policy makers"--
