Portfolio Assessment: A Clear View of Life-Long Learning

        A portfolio assessment is often deemed an authentic form of assessment because it includes authentic samples of a student's work. Many advocates of the portfolio assessment argue that this makes it a superior assessment tool because it demonstrates learning and growth over an extended period.

    I believe that portfolio assessments are particularly real since they reflect a sampling of students' greatest work as well as their life experiences, beliefs, and accomplishments. The portfolio also compiles each student's accomplishments, abilities, experiences, and characteristics. According to the article I read, a portfolio may highlight your skills and what you have to offer in the industry you have chosen while not replacing a resume or curriculum vitae.

I listed here the 3 benefits of portfolio assessment for students:
1. Encourage student reflection on their learning.
2. Help teachers determine whether students can apply what they have learned to new problems and different subject areas; and 
3. Students improve their metacognition; it's made them to be critical thinkers.
  

     In conclusion, as both teachers and students may profit from portfolio assessments, they should constantly be practiced and used. When students participate in engaging activities or assessments, teachers may help them become better versions of themselves in their daily lives.
