So, jyst ydych chi'n gweithio'r project outcomes, firstly we were organising and hosting an E-portfolio conference which took place in DIT from the 21st to 23rd of March this year. And the title of the conference was E-portfolios in Ireland, what now, where next. The next thing then was to develop an E-portfolio framework. So that's really gathering all of the project research, pulling it together into an easy to follow guide for use when developing an E-portfolio. And thirdly we were to launch and create and launch a project website which we entitled the E-portfolio Hub. And this was really to be a central repository where all of the set of E-portfolio approaches and the associate resources will be available to students, academic staff and higher education institutions. So to take a look at the outcomes of the project and what we've completed so far, that one of the first tasks of the group was to develop and create the E-portfolio Hub which is the website. And let me just see if I can bring you in to take a look at it. So yeah, so this was really initially to create awareness and develop awareness of the project and also to promote and launch the E-portfolio conference. And on this so far we've got a range of E-portfolio event. So this was really to promote the conference. So we had kind of how to register the program outline, keynote speakers and then the each day speakers. And ultimately we have uploaded presentation of sources and all of the video recordings from the event as well. So just to give you a few statistics on the traffic to the site. So so far since we've launched it, we've had quite a number of visitors, nearly 1,391 and the views have been about 5,578. And there's been certain, all of the pages have been viewed, but there's been certain pages that have been viewed more than others which is really to do with the promotion of the E-portfolio event which was a program in the E-portfolio event details. And then refers to the E-portfolio site, have mainly been DIT, Twitter and again Google search engine which kind of reflects the promotion of the event and how we did that. So to promote the event we set up a Twitter page which is at E-portfolio hub and we also set up a Facebook page E-portfolio hub and we found the Twitter page particularly good for kind of developing awareness of the event and the project, kind of making connections to people and definitely promoting the project. And at the event, kind of encouraging discussion and collaboration as well. So the E-portfolio conference itself took place in DIT from the 21st to the 23rd of March and the focus of this three-day event was to kind of share learning and practice about E-portfolio use and it was centred around three central themes. So day one was a focus on planning, day two was a focus on process and day three was a focus on product. And international speakers such as Dr Helen Barrett and Helen Beetham gave the keynote addresses and then various speakers from higher education institutions throughout the country. As Carina mentioned earlier, she presented us at it and they all presented on their kind of experience of using E-portfolios. So topics covered include E-portfolio projects, tools and platforms, the use of E-portfolios for assessment and reflective practice and also the role that E-portfolios can play in digital identity and career development. So during the conference we used the Twitter hashtag E-portfolio hub 16 and that created a lot of discussion and collaboration during the conference, so much so that we were trending topic in Ireland on day three. And also there's been a very favorable feedback from the conference with various comments on Twitter and also from the feedback survey that we sent out to respondents. So overall they did rate the E-portfolio event as meeting and exceeding their expectations and a lot of them were, the majority of them were very satisfied with the content and the length of the event, et cetera. So after the event, we uploaded the E-portfolio presentations and all of the video recordings that we took at the event and any associated resources. So we uploaded those to the actual website as a record of the event and also to share it to a wider audience that weren't able to attend the event. During the portfolio conference we used that as an opportunity to gather a lot of resources that would help to inform the framework, the E-portfolio framework itself. So we undertook to conduct some several video interviews with some of the speakers at the event and this was really to get some experience from individuals who had experience of using E-portfolios themselves or within a programme. And it was really to get them to share their experience and offer any insights that they had about using E-portfolios. And this occurred over the three days of the conference. And also we had think tank sessions. So every afternoon of the conference we held a think tank session. And this was really to kind of consolidate the knowledge and experience of speakers and attendees who had experience of developing E-portfolios. And it was really to get them together in a participative manner and kind of work in small groups to share their ideas and experiences. And we've got some very valuable feedback from both of these elements that will inform our E-portfolio framework. So we're currently conducting the following elements of the data collection and analysis phase of the project. So we're doing a desk space review, examining current practice. We're evaluating various technology tools and their suitability for E-portfolio usage. And we're also conducting online surveys, firstly to faculty and students to establish their awareness and use of E-portfolios and then to employers to establish the extent to which they use E-portfolios or access E-portfolios in their recruitment process. So we created an E-portfolio planning tool that really would be a kickstart to the planning process if anyone was looking to develop an E-portfolio or incorporate it into their course. And it was really a set of questions that need to be considered when actually planning an E-portfolio. And we piloted this tool at a workshop that we held in DIT at the Innovation Teaching and Learning Innovations. So we piloted that with a few participants and they gave us some useful feedback that we've subsequently included in a later draft. So the next steps in the project. So firstly we're going to complete the collection of data and the resources from the data collection phase of the project. And then we're going to analyse the results of the online surveys to faculty, students and employers. And then we're going to collate and consolidate these results, the resources and the research which will then inform the E-portfolio framework. This will then result in the creation and development of guidelines, exemplars, resources and training materials. And then we will launch the E-portfolio framework and the set of approaches and resources on the E-portfolio hub website. So we feel that there are certain elements that have impacted and will impact locally and nationally. So firstly, hosting the E-portfolio conference, E-portfolios Ireland, what now, where next. This really provided attendees with an opportunity to network, discuss, share and showcase their work that they're doing with E-portfolios. And then from that we shared the recorded presentations and resources from the conference on the E-portfolio hub website. And this meant that it was available for viewing by a larger audience. We will provide access to a comprehensive set of E-portfolio resources that will be available on this website for students and academic staff who want to develop their own E-portfolio or incorporate an E-portfolio into their programs. So we'll collate, develop and share of guidelines and exemplars for use by students and academic staff when developing an E-portfolio. We'll provide guidance on the introduction of an E-portfolio into an academic program. And we'll provide guidance on the various uses of an E-portfolio from the terms of teaching, learning, assessment, reflection and as a showcase. And we'll also do an evaluation of current technology approaches and their suitability for E-portfolio usage. And then provide guidelines for using the various systems. So how did our project develop when compared to our original proposal? So there was a delay in the start of the project from January to March, which meant that one of the first deliverables that we had to focus on and throw ourselves right into was organizing the E-portfolio conference. So that was held in March. And the data collection has kind of occurred during and after that conference. And we're currently in that phase of collecting the data and analyzing that data to inform the framework. There are a few slight changes to the original project proposal in terms of the collaboration envisaged. So people that we would like to have developed into program teams weren't available at that time. So the terms of the type of collaboration that we got involved in was just slightly different. So the steering group and myself as project coordinator, we worked closely and collaborated closely to achieve the project outcomes. And that involved a lot of weekly meetings via Blackboard Collaborate so we could record the sessions and occasional face-to-face as well. So these meetings, emails and sharing of resources online, this really helped to increase the collaboration between the members of the steering group. Staff from each of the institutions worked very closely together to organize the hosting of the portfolio conference. And through that conference, we gathered a lot of useful information, particularly from the collaborative and participative elements, which were the presentations, the various workshops, the video interviews, the think tank sessions and the feedback survey. And we've also gathered a lot of useful information from circulating of the online surveys to the various faculty, students in higher education and employers. And we received very valuable feedback from workshop participants on the portfolio planning tool. So what changes would we make to improve the impact of our portfolio conference? So there were just a few that we thought of when looking at the timing of the conference. The conference was held from, it was between St Patrick's weekend and Easter. So that was a time when a lot of academics would have been on holidays. So I think the attendance rate of the conference was kind of impacted with that, with a lot of people maybe being on holidays. And also the logistics of some of the technical elements of setting up the event was kind of affected by that as well with people being on holidays. Recording all the sessions at the conference, we recorded the keynote addresses and the morning presentations. But in hindsight, if we were to do it again, we would try and record all of the afternoon sessions, particularly the workshops and the think tank sessions. Because even with flip charts and notes, it's impossible just to retain all of the information from those sessions. And there was a lot of valuable discussions and feedback from that. Livestreaming the conference would have been very useful in terms of extending the impact of the conference to a wider audience and opening it up to more people that were unable to attend on the day. And earlier ethics approval. We needed ethics approval for the data collection phase of the project. And there was a delay in obtaining that. So we didn't have it in time for the actual project or the conference itself. Which meant that there were a few things that impacted in the data collection that we weren't able to do and sending out the feedback survey. That there was a delay in that. We weren't able to send it out directly after the conference, which I would say resulted in a lower response rate as it was maybe a month after the conference that we did that we did submit that. Thank you.
