Dr Ruth Cox and Dr Kevin Kelly, pioneers of ePortfolios at San Francisco State University (SFSU) in the U.S.A. share their metaphor of 'ePorticulture' and how the gardening metaphor works well to convey the cycle of work that is involved when you create a portfolio.
We go back to the roots of their portfolio initiative, what they have achieved, and where portfolios are at today at SFSU.
