Using Portfolios in Language Teaching

The book focuses on using portfolios to support language teaching in EFL contexts. Despite the rise of portfolio teaching in L1 classrooms, its application in the EFL context is few and far between. To fill this void, the book provides school teachers with an easy-to-follow guide to start up their customised portfolio programmes. The book has a healthy balance between rationale and practice through ready-to-use pedagogical strategies, authentic examples, and thought-provoking learning tasks for consolidation. Teachers may find Chapter 2 particularly relevant because it is about how to design a portfolio-based cirriculum within a didactic approach to language teaching. Similarly, Chapter 5 equips teachers with actionable suggestions on how to score language portfolios with diverse rubric templates. To keep abreast of the technological trend in education, Chapter 6 describes and showcases the use of various up-and-coming e-portfolios systems. With succinct explanations and illustrations, this practical book can enlighten teachers who aspire to upgrade their pedagogy with portfolios. -- Extracted from back cover.
