The Centre for International ePortfolio Development
Kirstie Coolin, September 2010
Our Priorities:
• Learner-owned technologies• Service Oriented Architectures• Interoperability through open standards• ‘Thin’ eportfolio models using distributed data• Re-using, not rewriting
Delivering• scalability• sustainability• reduced cost

New way of working and learning“The focus will be on a greater diversity of models of
learning: part-time, work-based, foundation degrees and studying whilst at home” Higher Ambitions 2010
Employability | Work-based learning | CPD | internships | modularisation | Lifelong and informal learning | Less institutional constraints | Distributed
learning | Learner expectations | Assessment

Evolving approach to technology
Historically, learners’ interaction with technology (VLE, ePortfolio…) confined within institutional boundaries
“Emphasis on flexible and lifelong learning heralds a surge of interest in lightweight, affordable technologies among new types of user” … including employers
Kirstie Coolin, September 2010
“…lifelong learner data and processes should be disaggregated from the institution if ePortfolio tools are to prove meaningful for lifelong learners.”

Surfacing the tensions?Practical concerns vs broader individual
benefits?
Recent progress in developing interoperability standards, federation and early piloting has unlocked this door;
A change in institutional culture is required to push it open.

Shifting institutional boundariesFlexible systems for employers, providers and learners
How?Numerous ways to present data to a range of audiences
- user interaction through ePortfolio, portals, web 2.0, mobile technology - efficient and cost effective
Ownership models | Learner-centred activity | Flexibility | Embedded standards |Secure and
seamless interfaces between systemsKirstie Coolin, September 2010

Modularisation of learner-owned ePortfolio processes and targeted data sharing re-used in different technological contexts according to roles and responsibilities.
