Joint Portfolio SIG & Lifelong Learning Group Meeting

This Portfolio SIG event was held jointly with the Lifelong Learning Group, at the University of Liverpool on Friday 28th April 2006, 10:00am to 4:00pm.

The meeting included presentations and opportunities for discussion around current work connecting e-portfolio and lifelong learning, including 14-19, FE, and HE, and provisionally will include aspects of policy, case studies centred on vocational and work-based learners, and a reference model for e-portfolio articulated around transition points in lifelong learning.

Programme

11:15 - 12:15 RIPPLLing our way to a Reference Model

Angela Smallwood, University of Nottingham, and Clive Church, CETIS.
Lifelong Learning and Portfolio combined literally for this session in which Clive and Angela presented and led discussions of the synergies between two JISC projects led by the University of Nottingham: the RIPPLL project (a regional approach to linking schools, colleges, universities, employers) and the ePortfolio Reference Model project. (PowerPoint slides here.)

Janet Strivens, University of Liverpool.
Janet drew on her experience from the JISC TransPortALL (MLE4LL) Project, based at Liverpool, the evaluation of the FILEPASS (DeL) project based at UCLAN and a recent survey carried out for the DfES to talk about cultural differences between FE and HE in relation to e-portfolio developments (from both staff and student perspectives) - and what we can learn from it. (PowerPoint slides here.)
