Implementing ePortfolios with Google Sites

Augustana College is a Google Apps for Education site. As part of the suite of applications, Google Sites allows for managed templates, student-created sites, commenting, and privacy control. Augustana has started utilizing this tool for an ePortfolio system at four levels: course, department, collegiate, and professional portfolios. This presentation will cover the reasons Google Sites is a good tool for this need, the technical limitations of Google Sites for this use, a brief overview of the template publishing ability, training and support strategies, integration with an LMS, and sample student portfolios.
