Digital Portfolios provide students of any age with the opportunity to collect and reflect upon their learning journey. Digital Portfolios enable students to make their thinking visible. As well as the many benefits for the students it is also an easy and manageable assessment tool for teachers. Our students are creating digital portfolios that allow them to receive feedback from parents, peers and teachers. These easily created portfolios combine work completed on both iPads and laptops, and store selected information from across the curriculum (photos, video clips, projects, photos of handwritten work) in one online space. We have many years experience working with a variety of tools and we will share how our students use Seesaw to create a seamless digital portfolio experience, with the recording option enabling students to explain their thinking quickly and in more detail. The basic principles and ideas can be applied when creating digital portfolios using other applications.
