e-Portfolio (http://eportfolio.utm.my)
The
e-Portfolio is the first of its kind digitally in Malaysia, the system
was developed in order to help students to plan their study more
efficiently. The students who recently registered were the first group
of student that implements the portfolio system which was developed by
the Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL) and Centre of Information
Technology and Communication (CICT), UTM.
e-Portfolio is an online compilation of documents that is flexible
and is based on artifact evidences of which students are directly
involved in a continuous reflection process towards their own learning,
the progress of their achievement on knowledge, technical and generic
skills as well as their personal, academic and career development
planning. UTM is the first university in the country that has developed
an e-Portfolio system for its student to record their academic progress
and learning reflection. The project was started in 2005 as one of the
tools to monitor and assess the acquirement of UTM Graduate Attributes
among its students. |
