Course Portfolios: an Alternative to a Final Exam
In this session, we'll talk about an alternative to a final exam: a portfolio that collects, selects, and reflects on what the student has learned in the course. Ideally, portfolios promote deep learning, provide the professor with a rounded look at the student's accomplishments and gaps, and leave the student with a tangible indication of academic growth: but there are also obstacles to a successful portfolio project. We'll talk about the process, pitfalls, and potential of course portfolios.
