What is an ePortfolio?

ePortfolios can help you to document and reflect on your formal and non-formal learning experiences in General Education, Field Experience, Language Enhancement, Co-curricular and Service Learning Activities, Overseas Exchange Opportunities and other related learning experiences. You are encouraged to set learning goals and develop your learning plan in Year 1, and join various learning activities provided by EdUHK to enhance your generic skills and acquire subject knowledge. Therefore, ePortfolio provides you with the opportunity to consolidate and internalize the knowledge and skills acquired in various learning activities across your University learning journey.

How to set learning goals?

All year-1 full-time undergraduate students are invited to conduct a survey on Assessing Generic Intended Learning Outcomes (GILOs) and a Student Individual Report, which can help students to self-monitor their GILOs development, will be sent to each participant after then. You are encouraged to make good use of this report to understand your strengths and weaknesses in terms of these 7 GILOs. You will be able to set learning goals and develop learning plans to enhance your generic skills with this report and to improve other aspects of your own interest.

What should I do after joining different learning activities?

You should record what you have learnt through building a ePortfolio page, and the most important thing is to REFLECT! Reflecting is not only about describing, you should also reflect on what you have learned through this experience. Through reflection, you are able to learn from the experience and change your future by taking appropriate actions. We recommend you to watch the “How to do reflective writing?”
