Electronic portfolios represent a potentially powerful new tool for faculty review. There are many good reasons to embrace this new technology.
First, we operate in an increasingly standards-based environment, and electronic portfolios offer a uniform way of documenting faculty achievement. They also provide a systematic approach to assessing change and growth among faculty members over time.
Second, becoming an early adopter of key technological trends lends visibility and prestige to your institution. E-portfolios signal forward-thinking leadership. They’re a valuable resource for faculty, who can efficiently organize their academic achievements, scholarly materials and evidence of teaching, scholarship and service and selectively share them with colleagues on and off campus.
Finally, an electronic database approach to faculty review can enhance efficient reporting enabling accreditation processes associated with organizations, such as the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
However, adopting any new technology presents challenges, and electronic databases are no exception.
This seminar saves you time and effort by walking you through the essential groundwork necessary to choosing and developing the right electronic portfolio system for your institution.
Fast-forward through a steep learning curve; avoid common pitfalls; and learn to successfully navigate the evolving world of e-portfolio options.
In our information-packed, 90-minute session, you’ll learn to:
• Identify criteria for assessing commercial and homegrown electronic portfolio products.
• Promote effective development of a faculty activity database.
• Avoid common pitfalls in choosing and implementing an electronic portfolio review process.
• Identify key constituencies for the development and promotion of an electronic faculty review system.
• Explore examples of faculty personnel reports extracted from an electronic database.
• Delineate appropriate uses for an electronic database on your campus–across or within disciplines.
