Developing portfolio practices at Laurea University of Applied Sciences

This paper describes the process of developing ePortfolio practices in Laurea University of Applied Sciences. Integrating ePortfolio practices to studies and curriculum has been our objective since 2014. During these years there has been a lot of challenges but we have also been able to create some functioning practices.

In this paper, the history, current state and the next steps to be taken are discussed. The emphasis is on understanding the challenges and difficulties of the process. The findings are based on Sometaduuniin (Social Media and its Equipments as a Way to Working Life) project. During the project we have worked with five pilot groups to be able to understand the challenges. The analysis is based on data gathered from a small group of lecturers and the managers responsible for the development of education. A small survey was also conducted for the pilot group students.

The participants of eApril conference were invited to share their ideas on what should be done in the near future for the challenges. These ideas are used and developed further in this article.
