Abstract

Seton Hall University uses e-portfolios to support the development of first-year students. By providing an interactive window of exchange, e-portfolios provide greater access and the capacity to explore issues of student adjustment, person-environment fit solutions, student self-expression, and identity development backed by an evidence-based repository of artifacts for analysis.
