Ray Tolley’ blog discusses the many issues which influence the how, why and what of using eportolios in education. He has summarised a google doc version of a summary of a mindmeister mindmap of work being done at Unitec in Auckland by Hazel Owens and the Centre for Learning & Teaching Innovation . I am looking forward to touching base with Hazel later this month at efest in Palmerston North & next month at the eportfolios in VET showcase in Melbourne. I am hoping that the conversations with...

Unfortunately I will not be able to attend - a hard-up retired chap
now! was quite interested/pleased with some of the quotes "The
Personal, Learning and Thinking Skills framework (PLTS) is the tool
the government has given schools to develop independent, creative
learners for the 21st century." [Mark Treadwell]
I would really like to hear what John Crookes, Head of Curriculum
Partnerships and Evidence at the QCA, has to say, he is going to "
give you an exclusive insight... Read Full Story

A lot of issues here, John. But to your last question re relationship
between personal learning environment and digital identity my view is
that one of the changes the education system will undergo is the
removal of the four walls from learning. This is the simple
recognition that learning does not just happen between the hours of 9
and 3, between four walls, between 2 Septembers with breaks in
between. Life is learning, isn't it. Sounds simple, but true. There is
really no... Read Full Story

Hello John,
I am unable to point to any research one way or the other relating to
your question about how well (or poorly) we are fostering self-
directed, independent learning.
I work at a college preparatory school here in the San Francisco Bay
area and I do have some anecdotal evidence that says we are not doing
the best job in promoting a movement toward helping students become
more self-directed and independent. In many ways, I think traditional
school enables learners to... Read Full Story
I suppose the reference to 2004 + 2005 should have been a bit of a
give away - but OK, I only skimmed it and posted it to the community
while sitting by the side of Lake Windemere. Enough of the excuses, it
does show the value of community, within a couple of hours both Serge
and Helen had come back to me to point out the out dated nature of the
orginal Blogg post and that Katrhyn Chang Barker now works in Saudi
Arabia. I must read things more carefully!
The discussion that Ray... Read Full Story

Hi John,
Ours is on Tuesday afternoon: "Sustainable eportfolio implememtation
through Information, Advice and Gidance services in a UK region:
Developments to a learner-centred ecosystem." I think you are chairing
in a parallel session.
Hope to catch you around though - I will also be sharing the
University of Nottingham's stand in the Knowledge Hub (stand 9). I
would really value your opinion on Passportfolio and the PLTS
activities we have developed on it. We still have a lot of... Read Full Story
drifted across this via http://www.international.studywiz.com/?p=1510#more-1510 - anyone able to point me towards an overview that shows what is
