Cool Tools for 21st Century Learners

AUGUST 29, 2015

As a longtime educator and instructional tech coach, I have embraced ePortfolios as a valuable tool for documenting learning over time, self-reflection, goal-setting and growth. An ePortfolio is a collection of student work that is used to document student effort, progress, and achievement over time. ePortfolios are powerful tools for authentic assessment. Dr. Helen Barrett has been researching strategies and technologies for ePortfolios since 1991.

I hoped to move on from there to what I called “approaches”, ways of using tech that didn’t depend on a specific platform – i.e., gaming and gamification, blended learning, distance learning, MOOCs, mobile, and digital literacy.

If you use the Google+ mobile app, then you may already be familiar with the option to automatically back up your photos and videos to Google+. And you'll see it in the Google Drive mobile app for iOS and Android as well, without the need for an app update. You can turn on this folder from the Settings on the web or in the mobile app. On your mobile device you can also turn on Auto Backup and Full Size Backups. This is a quick and easy way to set up ePortfolios.
