Eportfolios on the Job: The Use of Assessment Eportfolios in the Business and Technical Communication Job Market
Clayson, Ashley
Business and Professional Communication Quarterly, v82 n4 p458-474 Dec 2019
Instructors and administrators in business and technical communication (BTC) programs argue that assessment eportfolios can play a vital role in the success of BTC graduates on the job market. This study explores the use of assessment eportfolios by students, alumni, and employers in BTC. Nineteen interviews were conducted and analyzed for common themes and issues in participants' experiences. The author found that, while the participants did use assessment eportfolios in the job market, their experiences varied widely. These and other findings are discussed, as well as implications of this study for eportfolio pedagogy.
