Also known as theOpen Source Portfolio (OSP)

Example of a Sakai Portfolio Implementation

Wake Forest University uses portfolios to assist pre-health care students in applying to medical school.

Winner of the 2014 Sakai TWSIA Portfolio award.

Components of the process include:

• A matrix to collect evidence of learning

• A second matrix to collect relevant experiences

• A portfolio to combine the data from both matrices into a portfolio to ask for university support for the application.

The Future of Portfolios in Sakai

• The current Sakai portfolio is too complex, requires coding, and puts too much load on Sakai.

• Portfolios will be in Sakai 10 but not Sakai 11.

• The Sakai portfolio community spent several years identifying portfolio requirements.

• LTI integration provides a path to the future.
