What is a Portfolio? A portfolio is a “ flat case for carrying papers and drawings” (Merriam- Webster Dictionary, 2015)’ Indeed, Portfolios are used by painters, architects, and other artists to showcase samples of their best work. Portfolios in education, on the other hand, contain samples or evidences of what students have learned in a particular subject area at a given time.
Kinds: a. Showcase Portfolio - Similar to the original meaning of “portfolio,” a showcase portfolio is a collection of a student’s best work in a given discipline or subject area. The student is the one who selects which work he/she considers best and why. b. Growth Portfolio - A growth portfolio demonstrate how a student developed particular skill or knowledge over time. It provides evidence of a student’s progress in a learning area. Unlike a showcase portfolio, you not only see a student’s best work, but also see the students journey toward achieving excellence in the given skill.
Kinds c. Project Portfolio - A project portfolio emphasizes how a student completed discipline-based procedures or processes. The projects documented usually represent tasks or skills that professionals in the field usually do in real life . d. Academic Portfolio or Standards-Based Portfolio - An academic portfolio is a collection of student work that represents achievement of the content and performance standards for a given course.
Portfolio Development Phases 1. Projection- This is the stage where students define the goal or purpose of the portfolio. In this case, the purpose of the portfolio is to showcase their best work and connect them to the course standards. At this stage, the students also identify subtasks necessary in developing the portfolio. They would also estimate the time and resources available the project.
Portfolio Development Phases 2. Collection- The student collects and retrieves as many evidences or outputs from the course. 3. Selection- the student evaluates all of the artifacts gathered using criteria appropriate for the purpose of the portfolio. In this case, the criteria would focus on excellent artifacts that are aligned with the standards of the course. 4. Reflection- The student makes personal and academic insights based on the artifacts gathered. This includes reflections for each artifact and reflections for the whole portfolio.
Portfolio Development Phases 5. Self-Assessment – Using the rubric or criteria provided by the teacher, the student evaluates the completed portfolio. A student enhances the portfolio in the areas he/she rated low. 6. Connection and Presentation - Students share their portfolio with classmates, teachers, and even parents. They are also given the opportunity to provide feedback on the portfolio.
