e-Portfolio: online environments to facilitate on-going guidance at university
Abstract
This pilot-study concerns the construction of an ePortfolio, carried out by students during the 2013/14 Course of “Didactic of the Educational Guidance”*. The aim is to facilitate the orientation of university students through the documenting of their lived learning experiences and the consequent reflection
about them. In particular, a showcase portfolio has been realized using Mahara, an open source platform. The opinions of students, measured by input and
output questionnaires related to the research hypothesis (Mahara usability, conception and design of the eP to promote the awareness of the educational process), show they positively experienced metacognition and individual and collegial reflection, as well as some critical issues related to the projection of the instrument in a future working field.
