| Abstract | Over the past three years the Create@UniSQ student portfolio initiative has replaced the outdated Mahara platform providing an opportunity for real-world, authentic portfolio development aligned with UniSQ Education Plan objectives including Work Integrated Learning (WIL), employability, and professional identity. The program has encouraged rethinking the purpose and function of portfolios for students - both technically and pedagogically. As we shift understanding and mobilise new approaches to student success linked with changing global expectations of graduate capabilities the focus is on personalised learning and student empowerment. The versatile WordPress platform provides choice for student individuality and accessibility to online publishing skill development that is transferable across different occupations. What we have done is not just bring new edtech to the table but systematically and collaboratively developed a process for innovation and adoption of educational technologies in conjunction with building communities of practice around technical and pedagogical change for enhanced student choice, accessibility and future success. |
