Abstract

Portfolio as a learning and accreditation tool has been introduced at the Faculty of Heath & Life Sciences at Pompeu Fabra University in two different applications, student portfolio and teaching portfolio. Student portfolio has been applied to support some generic skills development (oral communication, written communication, information search, high technologies use and team work) at the 5-year Biology course students, during two academic years (2003-04 and 2004-05). We present portfolios guide, implementation process, satisfaction and attitudes of all participants (students and tutors) and objectivitys investigation of the assessment process. As a result, we have obtained positive outcomes that have supported the decision of extending the portfolio experience from the very beginning of the career. On the other side, faculty was invited to start its own teaching portfolio with the support of a teaching portfolio guide.
