Digital Portfolio Construction: A Guide for Showcasing Social Work Skills guides students through the process of compiling a digital portfolio--a collection of artifacts that demonstrates the knowledge, skills, and competencies they have mastered and articulates all they have learned throughout their social work program. The first part of the text focuses on constructing a digital portfolio, which includes the processes of gathering, selecting, reflecting, and sharing assignments and artifacts. In the later chapters, readers gain a greater understanding of the connection between what they learn within their courses and the social work competencies that are the hallmark of the profession. Recognizing that the construction and presentation of a digital portfolio requires active engagement and collaboration between students, faculty, and administration, two valuable appendices provide teaching suggestions for social work instructors and describe the programmatic and administrative contexts necessary to support the successful compilation of a digital portfolio and its use as a program outcome measure. Developed to help future practitioners increase their competence and confidence in presenting their knowledge and skills, Digital Portfolio Construction is a guide that can be integrated within social work curriculum and programs, or leveraged as a tool for independent study. Watch author Dale K. Fitch introduce Digital Portfolio Construction and speak to the how the text can help students recognize and reflect upon the competencies they acquire as they progress through their social work program. Watch Samantha Brown, M.S.W. speak to the importance of social work portfolios and how building a portfolio has been instrumental in her job search and professional networking.

This book equips pre-service teachers, research postgraduate students, teacher educators, and language specialists with specific knowledge and skills about the principles, research, and applications of digital portfolios within the EFL writing contexts. While most digital portfolio scholarship focuses on higher education, this book targets primary-level and secondary-level school audiences, namely pre-service teachers, teacher educators, and Ministry of Education staff members with a focus on EFL writing. The rationale behind this design is that the published literature on digital portfolios tends to be generic and one-size-fits-all; there has been scant published scholarship about the development of digital portfolio literacy among teachers and pupils, which could enable them to upgrade the teaching and learning of writing in a larger EFL environment. This volume fills this gap by illustrating the why, what, and how aspects of digital portfolios in ten reader-friendly chapters. Guiding educators to enrich their pedagogical repertoire via the portfolio approach, this book emphasises a healthy balance between principles, research, and practice. It is an easy-to-follow guide to setting up digital portfolio systems and coaching pupils to improve writing, ensuring the dissemination of digital portfolios with high fidelity.
