Assess Digital Learning & Instruction

The research outline is focused on evaluating the effectiveness of ePortfolios in enhancing student learning outcomes in elementary classrooms. The purpose of the study is to identify the impact of ePortfolios on academic achievement, self-reflection, and goal-setting, as well as to explore best practices for successful implementation. The research design will use a mixed methods approach to collect both qualitative and quantitative data, including progress monitoring, district-level benchmark assessments, small group notes, and ePortfolio artifacts. The literature review will focus on the benefits and best practices of using ePortfolios in educational settings.

This literature review explores the impact of ePortfolios on student learning outcomes, focusing on academic achievement, self-reflection, and goal-setting, and seeks to identify best practices for the successful implementation of ePortfolios in educational settings. The research question guiding this study is: How does the implementation of ePortfolios in elementary classrooms affect student learning outcomes in terms of academic achievement, self-reflection, and goal-setting?

In this action research study, the focus is on examining the impact of implementing ePortfolios in elementary classrooms and how it affects students' learning outcomes in terms of academic achievement, self-reflection, and goal-setting. The research aims to identify best practices for successful ePortfolio integration into educational settings and explore the potential benefits and challenges associated with ePortfolio implementation.

Throughout my journey in EDLD-5315 and EDLD-5320, I faced challenges, experienced growth, and developed a stronger sense of community and collaboration with my peers and instructors. The action research plan, literature review, and final synthesis assignment were demanding yet rewarding, and the encouragement and guidance provided by my instructors and colleagues were instrumental in my success. As I conclude my graduate studies, I am eager to apply the knowledge and skills I've gained to make a meaningful impact in the education field, with a strong sense of accomplishment and pride in my work.
