When cloud computing meets with SemanticWeb: A new design for e-portfolio systems in the social media era
Abstract
The need, use, benefit and potential of e-portfolios have been analysed and discussed by
a substantial body of researchers in the education community. However, the development
and implementation approaches of e-portfolios to date have faced with various
challenges and limitations. This paper presents a new approach of an e-portfolio system
design based on Private–Public (PrPl) data index system, which integrates cloud computing
applications and storages with Semantic Web architecture, making semantic
web-based visualisation and advanced intelligent search possible. It also discusses how
the distinctive attributes of the PrPl-based digital asset management system can serve as
a large-scale robust e-portfolio system that can address issues with scalability, sustainability,
adoptability and interoperability.With such a new distinctive design, a large-scale
deployment at a state or national level becomes possible at a very cost-effective manner
and also such large-scale deployment with intelligent digital asset management and
search features create numerous opportunities in education.
Good material for e-portfolio fans.
