This document discusses the use of ePortfolios and digital storytelling to support deep, lifelong learning through reflection. It begins by explaining key concepts like using portfolios for lifelong learning, identity development, metacognition, and digital storytelling. It then discusses the purposes of ePortfolios, including for learning, marketing, and assessment. EPortfolios can support self-directed learning by helping learners understand themselves, manage their learning, plan goals, evaluate progress, and understand how to learn. The document advocates using mobile devices and apps to more easily capture reflective moments and integrate reflection into everyday activities. It emphasizes that reflection is the "heart and soul" of ePortfolios and promotes lifelong, life-wide learning through dynamic stories
![Digital Storytelling Process
• Create a 2-to-4 minute digital video clip
– First person narrative
[begins with a written script ~ 400 words]
– Told in their own voice [record script]
– Illustrated (mostly) by still images
– Music track to add emotional tone](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/waikato2015keynote-copy-150211163520-conversion-gate01/85/Waikato2015keynote-10-320.jpg)

- 16. Purpose • The overarching purpose of portfolios is to create a sense of personal ownership over one’s accomplishments, because ownership engenders feelings of pride, responsibility, and dedication. (p.10) • Paris, S & Ayres, L. (1994) Becoming Reflective Students and Teachers. American Psychological Association
- 17. Personal Learning Environment Supports Self-Directed Learning
- 18. Lifelong Learner Four key pillars of Lifelong Learning (Barbara Stäuble, Curtin University of Technology, Australia)
- 19. Knowing the learner (Self-awareness) • Understanding prior knowledge • Motivation for and attitudes toward learning • Help learners understand themselves • See their growth over time
- 20. “Know Thyself” Temple at Delphi
- 21. Managing Oneself • “Success in the knowledge economy comes to those who know themselves – their strengths, their values, and how best they perform.” • Purpose: Use ePortfolios for managing knowledge workers' career development • What are my strengths? • How do I perform? • What are my values? • Where do I belong? • What should I contribute? • Responsibility for Relationships • The Second Half of your Life Peter Drucker, (2005) Harvard Business Review
- 22. Planning for learning (Self management) • Setting goals • Develop a plan to achieve these goals
- 23. Evaluating learning (Self monitoring) • Systematic analysis of learners’ performance • Responsibility to construct meaning • Be reflective & think critically • Learners construct meaning, monitor learning, evaluate own outcomes
- 24. Understanding how to learn (Meta-learning) • Awareness of learners to different approaches to learning • Deep vs. Surface Learning, Rote vs. Meaningful Learning • Different Learning Styles • Help learners recognize success • Accommodate approaches that are not successful
- 25. Deep Learning • involves reflection, • is developmental, • is integrative, • is self-directive, and • is lifelong Cambridge (2004)
- 26. “The portfolio is a laboratory where students construct meaning from their accumulated experience." (Paulson & Paulson, 1991, p.5)

- 28. QUOTE The e-portfolio is the central and common point for the student learning experience… It is a reflection of the student as a person undergoing continuous personal development, not just a store of evidence. -Geoff Rebbeck, e-Learning Coordinator, Thanet College, quoted in JISC, 2008, Effective Practice with e-Portfolios

- 49. Portfolio as Story "A portfolio tells a story. It is the story of knowing. Knowing about things... Knowing oneself... Knowing an audience... Portfolios are students' own stories of what they know, why they believe they know it, and why others should be of the same opinion.” (Paulson & Paulson, 1991, p.2)
- 50. Reflection = Storytelling The “Heart and Soul” of a Portfolio Reflection in portfolios helps learners construct meaning. “What?” “So What?” “Now What?”
- 51. “metacognition lies at the root of all learning” “…self-knowledge, awareness of how and why we think as we do, and the ability to adapt and learn, are critical to our survival as individuals…” - James Zull (2011) From Brain to Mind: Using Neuroscience to Guide Change in Education
- 52. What is Reflection? • Major theoretical roots: – Dewey – Habermas – Kolb – Schön • Dewey: “We do not learn from experience…we learn from reflecting on experience.”
- 53. Storytelling as Reflection (Schön, 1988) “…for storytelling is the mode of description best suited to transformation in new situations of action.” “Stories are products of reflection, but we do not usually hold onto them long enough to make them objects of reflection in their own right.”
- 54. Roger Schank, Tell Me a Story “Telling stories and listening to other people's stories shape the memories we have of our experiences.” Stories help us organize our experience and define our sense of ourselves.
