Resumen de Interactive capstone portfolios
Portfolios are a collection of student work over a period of time. Capstone project portfolios incorporate many forms of writtenartefacts, e-pages, oral presentations, journals and audio-visual material. Interactive capstone portfolios involve actions by botheducators and students to establish a dynamic set of usable and tangible skills. These include the development of writing skills fromminor project proposals to major reports or dissertations that are an ongoing learning exercise for the student. For the educator,portfolio development is a method of continuously and actively evaluating and commenting on a student's work, culminating in a finalmajor report. This portfolio report may be in traditional format, or may take the form of several artefacts, viz. electronic portfolios,written report, computer program 3D model, paper poster, (WWW) web page and electronic posters, together with oral presentations.These activities develop communication skills for working within an industrial environment. However, for academic purposesstratification of assessment grades is required, by both peer group assessment and independent academic assessment. Examples ofongoing capstone portfolio content will be given showing that which is submitted formally, and that which remains for the students'creativity, learning and self evaluation.
