A group of nearly 30 people gathered in the Capilano University Library this morning for a workshop with Tracy Penny Light (TRU) on Portfolios, Pedagogy, and Pathways.
The event was made possible through a grant awarded to the Folio Thinking CLC by the Faculty PD Committee in Spring 2016.
There was fantastic energy in the room and people left ready to explore “folio thinking” in their various home departments. It will be hard to follow Tracy’s advice that we “start small.” In the coming months, we look forward to using this site to share our findings as a campus learning community and build on the theoretical underpinnings and experience-based recommendations shared by Tracy.

We are proud to welcome a new site to the Liberal Studies ePortfolio ecosystem.
The newest site is entirely devoted to the
LSBA Grad Projects completed by upper-level Liberal Studies students.
The site currently features student profiles and descriptions of Liberal Studies Graduating Projects completed in Spring 2016. We look forward to adding new profiles and project links going forward!
Congratulations to all of the Liberal Studies students graduating in June 2016!

This afternoon we are kicking off the Liberal Studies Portfolio initiative with the help of Trula Fontaine (IT) and Rose Bunagan (LSBA 2014).
We have sample sites ready to go. The LBST 100 – Approaching Knowledge students have materials to post. We can’t wait to see how this multi-year adventure unfolds!
Many more posts to follow!

In Spring 2014, Rose Bunagan (LSBA 2014) was one of the peer mentors working on the Capilano University E-Portfolio Project. In addition to building out her portfolio, Rose assisted students from three CapU programs with the development of their digital portfolios.
Since then, Rose has graduated from the Liberal Studies BA and moved on to other adventures, including tackling an MA in Liberal Studies at Simon Fraser University.
Building on the discoveries and recommendations made after the Spring 2014 pilot project, the Liberal Studies BA is excited to be formally launching a Fall 2015 portfolio initiative with all newly admitted Liberal Studies students. We are even more excited to have Rosie back on deck as we introduce the portfolios to the students taking LBST 100 – Approaching Knowledge this term.
