Encourage student creativity and academic growth through portfolios and authentic assessment!

Research and practice show that portfolios are powerful tools for assessing students authentically, communicating with parents about the learning process, and helping learners across all grade levels and content areas record their successes and take ownership of their learning.

Through step-by-step procedures, the authors help teachers incorporate standards into the portfolio process by providing expanded checklists and rubrics to monitor student progress.

  • Additional information on e-portfolios and integrating technology
  • Steps for conducting student-led conferences
