Abstract

An important practice implemented since 2008 at the only teachers' college in the Kingdom of Bahrain-the Bahrain Teachers' College (BTC)- is e-portfolio assessment. Despite serious efforts to ensure effective implementation of e-portfolio assessment at BTC since its launching, there continued to be over the years several challenges and obstacles, mainly in the form of faculty and students' confusion, that needed to be overcome. This paper, as a result, highlights some of these challenges, it also investigates, through the analysis of a multiplicity of data sources, the impact of an integrated e-portfolio model (IEM), which was originally introduced at BTC in 2012, to help ensure a more successful and effective e-portfolio experience. This investigation is taken even further in the form of an evaluation of IEM on the basis of the well-informed 4 E-Model of Collis & Moonen. The results of the IEM overall evaluation indicated some improvement mainly in the form of stronger awareness and a more accepting culture of e-portfolios, still, however, they also pointed to continuing flaws in e-portfolio implementation and to a need for more focused training of stakeholders.

综合电子档案模式的评价——以巴林师范学院为例

自2008年以来，巴林王国唯一的师范学院——巴林师范学院(BTC)实施了一项重要的实践，即电子档案评估。尽管自启动以来，BTC一直在努力确保电子投资组合评估的有效实施，但多年来仍然存在一些挑战和障碍，主要是教师和学生的困惑，需要克服。因此，本文强调了其中的一些挑战，并通过对多种数据源的分析，研究了集成电子投资组合模型(IEM)的影响，该模型最初于2012年在BTC上推出，以帮助确保更成功和有效的电子投资组合体验。在Collis & Moonen广为人知的4 e模型的基础上，以评估IEM的形式进行了进一步的调查。IEM总体评估的结果表明，主要以电子投资组合的意识增强和更接受文化的形式有所改善，然而，他们也指出了电子投资组合实施中持续存在的缺陷，以及需要对利益相关者进行更有针对性的培训。
