If you are using portfolio assessment in your classroom, a digital portfolio is a great way to reduce paperwork and capture work samples while still allowing students to take the originals home. Digital portfolios can be created through commercial portfolio assessment programs or through a hypermedia authoring program. The advantage of the former is that the template for the portfolio is created for you, making it easier to just jump in. If you use a hypermedia authoring program, you first have to learn the program. The advantage of the latter, however, is that you can customize the portfolio to fit your needs.
