What happens if we shift the focus of our teaching and
learning innovations from a single classroom to an entire institution? What new
kinds of questions and possibilities emerge? Can an entire college break
boundaries, moving from a focus on “what teachers teach” to a focus on “what
students learn?” Can we think differently about student learning if we create
structures that enable thousands of students to use new media tools to examine their learning
across courses, disciplines, and semesters? Bret Eynon explores these questions as he analyzes
the college-wide ePortfolio initiative at LaGuardia Community College. Studying individual portfolios and focus
group interviews, he also examines quantitative outcomes data on engagement and
retention to better consider ePortfolio’s impact on student learning.
