If there is no single curriculum which all should undergo then there can be no single way of representing and recording learning that all should undergo. Rather, the portfolio should include everything that anyone is interested in including.

Picked up this quote from the GURTEEN Knowledge web site.

Since there is no single set of abilities running throughout human nature, there is no single curriculum which all should undergo. Rather, the schools should teach everything that anyone is interested in learning."
John Dewey (1859-1952) American philosopher & educator

If there is no single curriculum which all should undergo then there can be no single way of representing and recording learning that all should undergo. Rather, the portfolio should include everything that anyone is interested in including.
