Implementing ePortfolios

Moreau Catholic High School implemented student e-portfolios for freshmen using Google Sites. Students were required to upload two artifacts per quarter from their theology and English classes along with a reflection. This was part of a pilot program to eventually have e-portfolios for all grade levels across departments. Challenges included teacher concerns over artifacts, plagiarism, and assessment. The library helped train students and teachers on using e-portfolios and Google Sites.

- 45. Students take ownership of their learning
- 46. Students choose the work that demonstrates their capabilities.(self selection is part of the learning process and ensures a more authentic reflection)Being able to share with others (it's public!) is a motivator. Students like to display their work.
- 47. Teachers' Role

- 50. Students upload 1 piece of work (which was likely previously graded) per semester and provide a reflection. Students provide summary of assignment or attach assignment instructions/rubric.
- 51. Moving on, this program will be expanded to all departments helping to show a rounded picture of students' abilities and special areas of interest.2011-2012: Frosh2012-2013: Frosh, Sophomores2013-2014: Frosh, Sophomores, Juniors2014-2015: Frosh, Sophomores, Juniors, Seniors

Editor's Notes
- #7: Every single image on this page is outdated technology. Know what doesn’t get outdated? One’s ability to discriminate, make decisions using critical thinking and adapt to the relentless pace of change in the environment.
- #8: Hopefully not the multitasking teenager at the wheel.
- #11: Our Curricular Focus by this time should be clear.
- #12: Students need to learn to take control of and responsibility for their own learning, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t need guidance, help and direction from their parents and teachers.
