			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is a pleasure to follow Helen Barrett&#8217;s work on portfolios. I&#8217;ve been especially excited about it since she demonstrated the utility of blog pages as readily exploitable portfolio building venues: <a title="WordPress page portfolio (Barrett, 2006)" href="http://hbarrett.wordpress.com/my-portfolio/">WordPress.com (V.2) (2006)</a></p>
<p>In a post on December 8, 2008, she touches twice upon a concept of freshness (¶¶ 2 and 3, or ¶¶ 3 and 4), yet her <a title="E-Portfolios for Learning (Barrett, 2008)" href="http://electronicportfolios.org/blog/2008/03/digital-archive-for-life-diagram.html">Digital Archive for Life Diagram</a> includes a node for &#8220;&#8216;Legacy&#8217; Stories&#8221; (March 16, 2008):</p>
<p>I realize that her current endeavor, <a title="E-Portfolios for Learning (Barrett, 2009.01.30)" href="http://electronicportfolios.org/blog/2009/01/balancing-2-faces-of-eportfolios.html">Balancing 2 Faces of ePortfolios</a> (January 30, 2009), focuses on higher education. Nevertheless, the broader context of her work suggests less of a two-faced concept of portfolios for learning, and more of a continuum or flow from currency to legacy, as well as from process to product.</p>
<p>While developing portfolios in higher education contexts may be very much one-off endeavors for students coerced or cajoled into it, where she&#8217;d originally situated reflection under the time line, between collection and selection in the graphic displayed on her recent post (January 30, 2009) hardly represented or promoted the recursive nature of the reflective process. She seems to have taken this into consideration in later developments of the diagram that she has linked to that graphic (<a title="Barrett (2009)" href="http://electronicportfolios.org/balance/">Balancing 2 Faces of ePortfolios, 2009</a>).</p>
