ePortfolio 2003
ePortfolio 2003, the first international ePortfolio conference, Poitiers
About ePortfolio 2003, Poitiers France
General feedback from participants has been most enthusiastic. The opportunity to explore this important subject over two days and to see how it is being used in different sectors was clearly appreciated. The challenge of arriving at an acceptable working definition of the e-Portfolio that indicates what it is and what it is not still lies ahead and will be one of the first to be tackled by the European Consortium for the ePortfolio!
Some of the results of ePortfolio 2003
-
Progress on interoperability: the EPICC project (European Initiatives Co-ordination Committee)
