Allowing students to create their own Webfolios could be beneficial as it provides a format for exhibiting their work from various sources via links into a Webfolio. The ability to constantly edit any content would allow them develop content over a period of time.
The used of webfolios, which could be shared and interlinked could also be a positive activity for Level 1 students as an icebreaker, and I would be interested in the practicalities of a groupwork based Webfolio assessment (possibly replacing a presentation). Presumably a group could create their own Webfolios on one aspect of a brief and then interlink them and share them to create an online equivalent of a group presentation?
I would be interested if anyone has tried anything like this for an assessment???
The process of sharing via PebblePad also has benefits, as you could compose material in the thought option and then share only the final work (keeping your drafts hidden). Only what you share is accessible to others, not your entire PebblePad content.
Another positive is that you can give those you share with permission to comment on your content, and also to edit it via the collaborate option (this could be useful for my earlier suggestion of an online group assessment).
I think those are my key reflections/advantages... I'm definitely interested in investigating whether group project assessment through PebblePad would be feasible - we are, after all, always being told to promote a variety of assessments.
Any thoughts?
Over and out...
