e-Portfolios: New Features Planned for Elgg:

From the e-portfolios blog.

"Elgg users will be able to create presentations by extracting content based on keywords (similar to Gmail where you can create things called labels - you use these to house certain emails)

- the user will create a presentation called whatever they want - they will then be able to go and extract any content they want have have it display in this presentation

- the presentation will have its own URL which they can then point people to

- this enables users to create presentations for specific audience"

Forwarding it here to make sure reaches some of the readers of this blog. Also think it is vital in showing differences between reflective portfolio development and assessment. I won't bore readers again with my usual diatribe against the hijacking of portfolios for assessment. Presentation is how users interact with assessment by choosing a selection of their work which they wish to be assessed.

ELGg goes form strength to strength.
