Digital Show and Tell

As a child, show and tell was my most favorite day at school because I was allowed to show something I created, owned, or just valued. ePortfolios serve to influence evidence of learning much the same; it shows learning and tells the audience in which direction the learner is headed. I liked the practical applications that Karen Barnstable outline in the post, aptly entitled, “Benefits of an ePortfolio. It first shows the person what they learned, the instructor how knowledge was acquired and applied, and the company the growth of their employee. Barnstable also points out how it's an effective tool to match people with the proper fitting jobs (Barnstable, 2010). That claim has become almost prophetic of “The Great Resignation” as workers are leaving positions in search of a better fit. This signals the need for a paradigm shift in evaluation of learning and how someone fits into the work force. People will see an increase in satisfaction longevity at jobs and their respective performances. It honors their natural giftedness, interests, and achievements.
