E-portfolio installations at Swiss HEI
Last update: July 2017
An e-portfolio is a digital folder with a collection of a student's work. It is user-centred, which means that the student owns and creates his/her e-portfolio. An e-portfolio can be used in two different ways: either as a tool for reflection, to reflect on the learning process during studies, or as a career tool, to present and showcase work to a potential employer.
E-portfolios are designed for life-long use, which means that students can continue to use their e-portfolio also after their studies. With the new Swiss edu-ID offered by SWITCH, students can keep their e-portfolio also after their studies.
At Swiss Higher Education Institutions, Mahara is the most prevalent e-portfolio software. But other software or e-portfolio functions integrated in Learning Management Systems (LMS) are also used as e-portfolios. SWITCHportfolio is the e-portfolio service offered by SWITCH for Swiss Higher Education Institutions.
