Abstract

Do I dare disturb the universe? An ePortfolio vision fostering independent mindedness in healthcare

Author(s): Ms Anne-Marie Howes

Assessment and Learning in Placement Settings (ALPS) facilitated a student led ePortfolio project to address the requirements of 16 different healthcare professions, across five universities in West Yorkshire (UK), with the aim of designing an ideal ePortfolio. This highlighted the importance of generic and specific pedagogical issues underpinning facilitation in healthcare settings and in the use of ePortfolios.
