Abstract

During the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the ability to be a self-regulated learner has become more important with the introduction of online classes. These changes mean that students are now required to review their learning strategies and self-manage their learning time. We have developed a new "ePortfolio system" with the aim of building a system that fosters self-regulated learners and can visualize students' learning outcomes. This paper introduces the concepts of our ePortfolio system as a Learning Management System ePortfolio building system that will provide enhanced functions and become a university-wide initiative.

Keywords: Learning Management System; ePortfolio; formal learning and informal learning; self-regulated learning; visualization of learning outcomes.
