Abstract
E-portfolios in learning environments have been attributed numerous benefits and their presence has been steadily increasing. And so has the variety of environments in which a student participates. Collaborative learning requires communication and resource sharing among team members. Students may participate in multiple teams throughout a long period of time, sometimes even simultaneously. Conventional eportfolios are oriented toward showcasing individual achievements, but they need to also equally reflect collaborative achievements. The approach described in this paper has the objective of offering students an e-portfolio as a local folder their personal computer containing a combined view of their individual and collaborative work spaces. The content of this folder can be synchronized with a remote server thus achieving resource sharing and publication of a clearly identified set of resources.
