Hello!
The AAEEBL Digital Ethics Task Force is conducting a research study to better understand and map the labor of ePortfolio work in higher education. This multi-institutional study aims to identify, compile, analyze, and facilitate activity and interest in ePortfolios in higher education by surveying ePortfolio practitioners and related professionals in the US and Canada.
The project aims to identify the labor and common practices related to ePortfolio work in order to define an emerging field. Such work allows the ePortfolio community to better prepare new practitioners who may join the field, as well as more effectively advocate for resources and equity of compensation. This multi-institutional study aims to map the labor of ePortfolio work by better understanding how it is conceptualized, conducted, and supported.
If you decide to participate, please follow the link to the ePortfolio Mapping Survey (also provided at the end of this email). You will be directed to a survey about ePortfolio labor at your institution. The survey is anonymous and will take about 20 minutes to complete. If you have questions about this study, please contact the co-principal investigators Megan Mize, mm...@odu.edu and Sarah Zurhellen, zurhe...@appstate.edu.
If you have questions about your rights as a research participant, you may contact the Old Dominion University’s Office of Research by phone (757-683-3460).
