Construction and Evaluation of a Web-Based Learning Portfolio System: An Electronic Assessment Tool

This study constructed and evaluated a web-based learning portfolio (WBLP)of authentic assessment, in order to help record, display, search and analyse student learning process data. The WBLP system has been officially implemented in a course at the university for a semester. The summative evaluation of the system includes user-based and expert-based evaluations in terms of system functions, overall design and interface operation, implementation and uses, and impacts on learning. The results of the system evaluation show that most students consider the system to be helpful with respect to improving learning and accomplishing quality.
