If you're working with template-based portfolios in the rSmart Sakai CLE, you'll want to check out a new resource in the Sakai wiki: Creating Custom Renderers.
Campus Technology recently publised an article written by Trent Bason called, The Right Data for ePortfolios. This article focuses on a different way of inputing data into ePortfolios to answer the question:"What are we doing now in higher education to see changes in students over time and how do we represent those changes so that both the student and other interested parties understand those changes?"

I admit I've been lurking in a very slackernly manner in all the discussions in the Sakai community about content authoring, 3akai, UX, K2, Sakai NG and other unpronounceables, so I'm sorry if all this is a day late and a dollar short. Feel free to ignore me if you're part of Sakai and are way too far gone for any more input. After all, these are just thought experiments ;) If you're not part of Sakai, you might learn something about Drupal at least, so it may well be worth your time.

Thanks to the University of London, I was able to try out a few open source portfolio systems, including Elgg, Mahara and Moodle.

After 5 years as Portland State's Director for Web Communications, I've moved on to work for The rSmart Group, a commercial provider of open source technologies working mostly in the education sector with Sakai, OSP and Kuali.
