Abstract:
Portfolio assessment is an alternative method of evaluating student performance. Portfolios provide an opportunity for students to display a broader range of abilities when compared to traditional testing techniques. Students assume a more active role in the learning process when developing a portfolio because they must create, analyze, and evaluate their own work. The role of the faculty member also changes from providing information to facilitating the learning process and empowering the learner. Administrators and faculty members in colleges of agriculture should consider incorporating portfolio assessment techniques into their evaluation of student performance.
