What are they? Three main types:
– developmental (e.g., working),
• a record of things that the owner has done over a period of time, and may be directly tied to learner outcomes or rubrics.
– reflective (e.g., learning), and
• includes personal reflection on the content and what it means for the owner's development.
– representational (e.g., showcase).
• shows the owner's achievements in relation to particular work or developmental goals and is, therefore, selective. When it is used for job application it is sometimes called Career portfolio.
