Abstract
This presentation will explore the creation and use of web portfolios by preservice teachers. In addition, this presentation will relate the experiences and reflections of the presenters who have had had hundreds of students construct web portfolios for the past 3 years. A literature review of web portfolios by preservice teachers will be conducted for the final presentation. This presentation will also describe the advantages and disadvantages of web portfolios and how they compare with other types of portfolios. A description of hardware and software requirements will be addressed. Sample web portfolios used by the presenters, and other colleges and universities will be explored. Issues such as skills required to construct portfolios, use of templates, longevity of portfolios, outdated information, safeguarding private information, volunteer vs. required web portfolios, and technical problems will be outlined.
