ePortfolio / Livetxt Support Area
Welcome to the EIU ePortfolio section of the College of Education and Professional Studies website, your resource for electronic portfolio information and support. The EIU Teacher Education electronic portfolio (ePortfolio) is required for ALL Eastern Illinois University teacher education candidates. The electronic portfolio is part of EIU's Unit Assessment System and provides students with a structure to file and organize examples of work completed throughout a program of study for assessment and accreditation purposes. The eportfolio will also assist students through an exciting opportunity to develop a showcase portfolio to supplement a resume when applying for a teaching position. A private vendor, Livetext, has been selected to provide the technological tools and support for the EIU electronic portfolio.
