Abstract

The [EXACT Scholars ePortfolio instructionsAC-Practitioner.pptx provides a comprehensive overview of the expectations and development process for the Practitioner-level ePortfolio within the EXACT Scholars Program at Georgia Gwinnett College. It defines the ePortfolio as a digital tool for documenting academic growth, experiential learning, and professional readiness, emphasizing its role in presenting a cohesive narrative beyond a traditional resume. The presentation includes detailed instructions for navigating the Student Learning & Licensure (SL\&L) platform, guiding students through portfolio setup, template selection, and content development. At the Practitioner level, the document outlines advanced requirements, including completion of Mastering Career Readiness modules 1–5, two upper-level (3000–4000) course or co-curricular reflections, and a 750-word candidacy reflection supported by three artifacts. The presentation emphasizes the application of experiential learning and critical thinking skills, structured through an integrative learning rubric. Additionally, it provides guidance for publishing the ePortfolio and submitting a public URL for evaluation, positioning the portfolio as both an academic reflection tool and a professional showcase leading toward graduation.
