Abstract
In this paper the second phase of a research study introducing ePortfolios to pre-service education students is reported. The technology director – the first author of this paper – has responsibility for increasing the use of technology across the College of Education they attend, and the introduction of ePortfolios is part of her general strategy. The findings of a pilot study were integrated into the re-design of the introduction to, and use of, the ePortfolios with the target group of students. The evaluation of this stage of the research forms the basis for this paper.
