E-portfolios

"At the heart of the portfolio as we envision it are samples of ---performance, not just what (persons) say about their practice but artifacts and examples of what they actually do." Edgerton, Hutchings and Quinlan, 1992)

Since e-portfolios are used as exit demonstration of academic proficiency in the MLIS program, the e-portfolio workshop is one of four cohort onsites that all members must attend. This spring, there will be two for cohort members: (1) at Marshall University's Charleston Campus, 100 Angus E. Peyton Drive (exit 55, I - 64) and (2) at Waynesboro High School, 1200 West Main Street, Waynesboro, VA 22980.

The meetings will run from 10:00 AM - 3:30 PM with lunch provided.

Persons in WV and VA interested in beginning the MLIS online program might wish to observe part of the day, meet students in the program, and speak with faculty or staff.
