e-Portfolio stand for Electronic Teaching Portfolio..

#Electronic Portfolios are a creative means of organizing, summarizing, and sharing artifacts, information, and ideas about teaching and/or learning, along with personal and professional growth.

#Cambridge (2003) defines an e-portfolio as:
—1. “what is produced when persons collect, select, reflectively interpret, and/or present their own evidence to support their assertions about what they have learned, know and can or should do;
—2. a selection of ‘products’ of learning, reflections or interpretations on those products, and
—3. representations of relationships between and among the products and interpretations.
4. A standards-based portfolio uses a database or hypertext links to clearly show the relationship between standards or goals, artifacts, and reflections.
—5. The learner’s reflections are the rationale that specific artifacts are evidence of achieving the stated standards or goals.
