| Abstract (English): | This case study relates to the use of a social media platform as an E-Portfolio system. The E-Portfolio system has been used by the authors in the area of Academic Development and specifi cally within a “Postgraduate Certifi cate in Academic Practice” (PGCAP) at the UK University of Salford. The PGCAP is a blended programme, primarily for new-to-teaching academics as well as professionals in learning support roles at the university, but also attracting more experienced staff wanting to update and acquire new skills and approaches to teaching and support of learning. The E-Portfolio enables participants to develop their understanding of learning and teaching in HE, around contemporary pedagogies and versatile and innovative practices in the digital age. It also provides a space for participants to demonstrate their achievements. Successful completion of the programme leads to a recognised teaching qualification in HE, as well as eligibility for Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy. The E-Portfolio provides ongoing opportunities for developing refl ective Habits and professional practices in learning and knowledge-building: through mediarich reflection and in asynchronous discursive conversations with tutors and peers. The E-Portfolio acts as a learning space for collaborative learning and peer support beyond the classroom and is also used for assessment purposes. To date, the E-Portfolio system has been used and evaluated with three cohorts and the approach designed at the outset has been refined and developed, in light of evaluative evidence from performance and feedback. The authors share their thinking about the evolving use of an E-Portfolio for assessment and the pedagogical rationale on which it is based. How this approach could be adapted for different learning and teaching contexts is discussed as a means to promote learning in Higher Education as a more reflective, connected and creative experience but also one which has the potential to motivate and connect individuals and groups of learners both within and beyond course-based or even institutional boundaries.
