Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the use of worked examples, a form of invitational scholarship that provides scholars an outlet for sharing their work online, as a new way of doing portfolio assessment that supports pre-service teachers’ critical engagement with pedagogical ideas. A worked example is the public display of one’s assumptions and methodologies in approaching to a shared problem in a way that promotes debates within a community of practitioners. We use an open source application for creating and sharing worked examples to provide a place for scholars to share and critique each other’s conjecture by using of multiple modes of discourse with preservice teachers in an educational psychology course to understand if and how students’ presenting and sharing their work in the form of worked examples promotes critical engagement and collaborative reflection. Our findings provide insights into extending our understanding of portfolio assessment.
