Create Your Own Electronic Portfolio - http://transition.alaska.edu/www/portfolios/iste2k.html: "This article describes the electronic portfolio development process further and covers seven different software and hardware tools for creating portfolios. Some very good commercial electronic portfolio programs are on the market, although they often reflect the developer’s style or are constrained by the limits of the software structure. Many educators who want to develop electronic portfolios tend to design their own, using off-the-shelf software or generic strategies. Here, I discuss the structure of each type of program, the advantages and disadvantages of each strategy, the relative ease of learning the software, the level of technology required, and related issues."
