Why ePortfolios?
The ePortfolio in Kinesiology is a program-level reflective ePortfolio that serves as a central location for students to highlight meaningful and impactful learning experiences, while exploring the process of personal and professional development via guided- and self-reflection.
The ePortfolio is a visual representation of a student's personal journey to professionalism -- it is a living document that captures a student's journey of their undergraduate experience as it emerges.
