Abstract: | This study explores the perspectives of students, teachers and parents to evaluate the use of digital portfolios as an additional
way to capture and enhance the learning of elementary students in a public school setting and as an opportunity to communicate
this learning to parents. The research questions address four problems: complex assessment of learning, parental participation,
and student and teacher satisfaction and the impact of the portfolio on teaching methods. Particularly, we are interested
in the subjective satisfaction of students, teachers and parents in the portfolio development process. We are also interested
in whether students learn to reflect constructively on their work, whether teachers have changed their teaching methods and
whether parents believe the portfolio was used or could be used for enhanced communications. |
