“A portfolio may be a folder containing a student's best pieces and the student's evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the pieces. It may also contain one or more works-in-progress that illustrate the creation of a product, such as an essay, evolving through various stages of conception, drafting, and revision.” - “A portfolio may be a folder containing a student's best pieces and the student's evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the pieces.

Why use student portfolios? - Metacognition:
- To emphasize student’s role in constructing knowledge
- To record and be aware of activities undertaken over time in the development of written products
- To support cooperative teaming by offering an opportunity for students to share and comment on each other's work
- To assess student growth and learning by the student, peers, teacher, and family
- To get students to take a second look and think about how they could improve future work
- To provide structure for involving students in developing and understanding criteria for good efforts
How do I start” - “In building a portfolio of selected pieces and explaining the basis for their choices, students generate criteria for good work, with teacher and peer input.”
- “Students need specifics with clear guidelines and examples to get started on their work, so these discussions need to be well guided and structured.”
