Portfolios are no longer just a good idea, that are an expectation and a
powerful element of college and career readiness for many.</b></font></h2>
<p>Just
a few years ago ePortfolios were all the rage with schools and
employers. You couldn’t open an education or employment blog without
reading tips for creating the best online ePortfolio so you could get
into the school of your dreams and land your ideal job afterwards. But
it seems the ePortfolio fad has died out or at least slowed down quite a
bit as of late. So, what caused the flow of articles on ePortfolios to
subside? Are ePortfolios a victim of the struggling economy or just a
victim of circumstance? Do ePortfolios matter anymore? </p>
