Creating a Prior Learning Assessment E-Portfolio Development System on WordPress

Prior learning assessment efforts are challenged with helping students present their cases for receiving degree credit for prior learning, including workplace training and other college-level learning from life experience. This presentation will show how Granite State College developed a low-cost e-portfolio blog system using a self-hosted WordPress multisite to simplify student e-portfolio development, centralize information, reduce labor intensity, and streamline access for all participants. The result is a highly focused narrative of student experience, which also minimizes participants' feelings of overload.
