With the advent of technology, electronic portfolios are introduced. According to Barrett
(2000), an electronic portfolio includes the use of electronic technologies that allow the
portfolio developers to collect and organize artifacts in many formats. Heath (2002) proposes
that once the portfolio is created electronically, it is easier to maintain, edit and update than
its paper counterpart. With electronic portfolios, students’ work can be collected, stored and
managed electronically, taking very little or no physical space.
