I am a retired teacher educator, doing research on using Web 2.0 tools to support personal learning environments for lifelong and life-wide learning, sometimes called electronic portfolios, and lifetime personal web space.
Hello Dr. Barrett,
I've recently been doing a lot of research on digital portfolios and how teachers can implement these in the classroom (a former teacher myself, I have used portfolios, but I regret not digital!) I have learned an incredible amount from your blog and various sites you've posted, but I'm having difficulty finding articles or resources that promote the safe use of digital portfolios. I know that many tools like DIGIcation and others provide a "walled garden," but I'm looking for good article or piece of literature on this subject. I'm wondering if you can provide any direction for me?
Thank you for help!
