Oppimisportfolio

Oppimisportfolio, or learning portfolio, is a structured collection of evidence that demonstrates a learner’s knowledge, skills, and development over time. It serves as a tool for learning, reflection, and documentation, and is used in a variety of educational contexts—from primary and secondary schools to higher education and vocational training. The portfolio combines artifacts, reflections, and assessment information to provide a holistic view of progress and competence.

A typical oppimisportfolio includes components such as a learning plan or goals, artifacts (for example assignments, projects, exams, presentations, portfolios of work, and digital media), and reflective notes where the learner explains the relevance of the artifacts and links them to specified goals. It may also contain feedback from teachers or peers, self-assessments, and rubrics or criteria used for evaluation. Portfolios can be digital or physical, and digital platforms often support updating, searching, and sharing with teachers, mentors, or employers.

Purpose and use vary by context but commonly include supporting formative assessment, documenting achievement for summative evaluation, and aiding learner self-regulation through reflection and goal setting. Oppimisportfolio promotes metacognition, ownership of learning, and a more comprehensive picture of competence than tests alone. It can also facilitate transitions between educational stages or serve as part of the admissions or recruitment process in some settings.

Challenges include the time required to build and maintain the portfolio, ensuring alignment with curriculum standards, and addressing issues of standardization, privacy, and digital literacy. Effective use typically requires clear guidance, agreed-upon evaluation criteria, and ongoing support for learners and teachers.
