Introduction of an e-portfolio in clinical dentistry: staff and student views. Vernazza, C., Durham, J., Ellis, J., Teasdale, D., Cotterill, S., Scott, L., Thomason, M., Drummond, P., & Moss, J. European Journal of Dental Education, 15(1):36–41, 2011. 00010Paper doi abstract bibtex Abstract Introduction: An electronic portfolio was introduced for undergraduate students in the School of Dental Sciences at Newcastle University. Its introduction was evaluated in terms of both staff and student response. Methods: A quantitative-qualitative methodology was adopted. Student views were examined quantitatively using a Likert scale based questionnaire both pre- and post-introduction of the eportfolio. Staff views were examined qualitatively by the use of focus groups. Results and discussion: Findings included that the system was easy to use and it provided a large quantity of high quality data. The aim of the system to improve reflection and feedback was not perceived as a benefit by staff or students. The need for training was highlighted and a major disadvantage of the system was its time consuming nature. The evaluation has lead to further development of the system and continued evaluation will be important.
