Has anyone else been using Expo as a vehicle for e-portfolios? We have been using this successfully this year. It is embedded into Blackboard and students can use it to develop their own Blogs and Wikis - they love it.

BB is terrible for ePortfolios. Have used it for the past 2 years and many students choose to build their portfolio outside BB. It is clunky, it formats pages the way it thinks they should be formatted etc. and most of the students feel it is inadequate. That's my two penneth!

Hello ladies
I use Blackboard currently, but not sure I can share any good practice,
as I am still experimenting, however would be interested in whether you
have used e-portfolios?
I won't be able to attend the Manchester conference but would be very
interested in seeing your resource if at all possible.
Thank you

Hello Carina
I'm days away from launching a resource for students through Blackboard
which I am demonstrating at the PDP conference in Manchester next week
if you are going? Might also be able to help with a short term demo
account if you would like.

Subject: Using Blackboard for PDP
Hi everyone,
Portsmouth is currently looking into a revamp of the ways in which PDP
is offered to students and supported throughout the university. At
present we are pretty much locked into using WebCT Vista but in order to
make the most of what we do have and capitalise on this opportunity to
change the way it works, I was wondering if anyone is using
(successfully if possible, but not exclusively) Blackboard for PDP. I
would be very interested to hear what works, what doesn't, what you've
added or taken away and how staff are supported in its use. Also, if
there would be any possibility of having access to a demo account then
that would be very helpful indeed.
Thanks very much for your help,
Carina
