Teacher-Librarians and ePortfolios: A Perfect Match

Abstract

This paper introduces the concept of portfolios and ePortfolios and then presents an argument for teacher-librarians to implement ePortfolios in their schools. Literature about the different types of ePortfolios (process/learning, assessment, showcase/presentation) is summarized and research about integrating ePortfolios in elementary classrooms is shared. A summary of the reasons why teacher-librarians are uniquely qualified and situated for this work is also included.
