E-Portfolio - a complementary assessment method in continuous training programs

In this study, we aim to present the virtues of the digital / electronic portfolio, seen as an electronic collection of evidence: scientific papers, essays, reflections, factsheets, abstracts, records, cognitive maps etc. in the evaluation of pre-university teachers who are involved in the continuous training programs. As a research method, we used the questionnaire survey managed through Google Docs to 30 participants in one of the in-service training programs offered by the institution I represent. E-Portfolio seen as an alternative assessment method supports the development of digital competences and online communication, contributes significantly to the development of critical thinking, visible learning, self reflection etc. The electronic format of the documents allows learners to be evaluated through different storage media of the portfolio: internet, CD, DVD or USB. Electronic portfolios have become an effective alternative to paper-based portfolios, as it offers the opportunity to review, communicate, and provide feedback in a flexible and dynamic manner.
