Portfolios: A Practice, Not A Project
Thursday, June 26th, 02:00pm - 03:00pm
What if we stopped treating portfolios like a one-time project and started using them as a consistent practice for student growth? In this session, you’ll learn how to shift from traditional assessments to a student-led process that highlights leadership, entrepreneurship, and learning that lasts. Based on the ISTE book, Learners Today, Leaders Tomorrow, the authors will guide attendees to explore how digital portfolios can help students receive feedback, reflect, and innovate, creating skills that go far beyond the classroom.
