EPortfolio Maturity Framework

Abstract

This paper presents activities and outcomes of a research project targeted to support individuals, organisations, communities and public authorities to reflect on and improve the use of technologies for learning with special focus on ePortfolio practices. With the support of the European ePortfolio community of practice, the 18 months long research resulted in the design of an ePortfolio Maturity Framework (EPMF) including five main components and forty-four indicators. The EPMF describes educational ecosystem with the support of ePortfolios and enables organizations to develop a tool to benchmark and measure their progress across time.
