ePortfolios in Education

From my own perspective, having an ePortfolio class was one of the best college experience I could have because it gave me leverage about my education while I was getting my fourth college degree when I switched from my previous major at LaGuardia Community College. It helped me in a way that I could plan myself accordingly despite that previously I was just taking classes abruptly and not much caring about them. However, I started documenting the courses I was taking by uploading the important work from my assignments, essays, presentations, research papers, videos, etc.

Overall, I can confidently say that the ePortfolio class was definitely one of the I've ever had amongst the over hundred courses I've taken in five colleges (BMCC, CCNY, NYIT, #LaGCC, #JJay ) I've gotten degrees from. Also, taking the ePortfolio class at LaGuardia which is a community college and "supposedly" must have a lesser quality of education than the rest. However, taking the first year seminar which was conducted through ePortfolio made all the difference and this inspired me to take this ePortfolio University initiative. Therefore, the importance of ePortfolios will eventually increase in a way that it'd be widely used and utilized, especially in higher education.
