Authors : Bouzidi Abdelkader . Benabed Ammar .

Abstract

E-portfolios are increasingly becoming popular in universities all over the world for promoting reflective practice and critical thinking. However, Algerian universities have yet to implement these technological tools in the learning environment. This paper aims to explore the attitudes, benefits and challenges the Algerian students faced when using e-portfolios. The experiment took place at the university of Djelfa where first year English students reflected on their learning experience in Oral Expression class for two semesters in the university year of 2022-2023. The data was obtained using a mixed-method questionnaire. The results show the majority of the students had positive attitudes towards e-portfolios and found that they allow them more freedom of expression, and helped them become more reflective and harnessed their fluency in technology. The challenges resolved around technical issues the students encountered during the process.
