Abstract

Preservice teachers at Northern State University have been creating electronic portfolios since 1999. Data collected since then indicate that the e-portfolio can serve as a valid indicator of preservice teachers' mastery of the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards (NETS) for teachers. In addition, it appears that the e-portfolio process and product have the potential to provide authentic assessments of teacher education students' mastery of program outcomes as well. A newly-created assessment rubric has been placed on-line, allowing faculty to assess students' e-portfolios at three points during their teacher education program and provide feedback in an electronic format. This on-line data is currently used to track preservice teachers' progress and to document their achievement. Samples of students' e-portfolio components and assessment data will be shared with session participants.
