  1. RIPPLLing our way to a Reference Model Clive Church, CETIS Angela Smallwood, University of Nottingham

  2. ePortfolios Premise • Everyone has a different view of what an ePortfolio contains • Everyone is right

  3. Applying from school to college: Goals and Aspirations Personal Details Goals and Aspirations Qualification Details Courses to be applied for Institutions Attended Interests Personal Achievements Application to College Generator The Nottingham LEA ePassportfolio system

  4. data components Underlying Philosophy: Data components can be stored on different systemsComponents can be transferable from system to system Appropriate components can be accessed from individual applications School/ Home School/ Home School/ Home School School School / Home School Coursework Goals and Aspirations Qualification Details Personal Details Institutions Attended Personal Achievements Interests Application to College Generator

  5. …..and the components conform to standards GOAL QCL ACTIVITY Coursework Qualifications, Certificates and Licences INTERESTS ID Schools, colleges attended Table of Rights AFFILIATIONS SECURITY RELATIONSHIPS ACCESSIBILTY COMPETENCY TRANSCRIPT For example: between QCI and a portfolio Summary of all achievements The LEAP (British Standard BS 8788) Space

  6. ePortfolio DevelopmentsNottingham University and partners • 1. RIPPLL (Regional Interoperability Project on Progression for Lifelong Learning) • Test LEAP for moving data both between institutions and also between institution and employer (in both directions) • Pilot LEAP within the City of Nottingham Passport and support development of new Passportfolio system as fully LEAP compliant • Provide a range of scenarios and use cases • Partners: • Nottingham Trent University • Nottingham LEA • West Notts College, Broxtowe College, • New College Nottingham, [Newark College] • Toyota Lexus Academy • SMEs in IT industry

  7. City of Nottingham Passport(One use case: school to college) App: School ILP (years 9 to 11) Inter ests ID Accessibility Goal App: Build an application to College ID Acces sibility Goal Inter ests QCL 1* Other data App: Transmitting Results From Awarding Body? College’s data ID Acces sibility Goal QCL 2* ID QCL 1* QCL 2* Inter ests Other Data App: Build ILP framework ???

  8. Regional Interoperability Project on Progression for Lifelong Learning (RIPPLL) Use cases: pathways through learning Contribution to Interoperability standards Testing Standards Authentication ….and its link to Lifelong Learning Goal Setting Applications to work, college, university Progress reflection Individual Learning Plans Assessment Recording achievements Guidance

  9. FE applications process  All post-16 colleges in the region involved Dissemination of: Awareness Know-how Technical infrastructure Enabling further collaboration in future to share data via web services www.nottingham.ac.uk/rippll/keydocuments.htm RIPPLLing thro’ the region

  10. I’ve kept my ePortfolio up to date Now I can carry on adding to it as a Union rep Finished my Work based learning degree I’m looking for new job with skills evidenced in my ePortfolio Vision being explored through 12 projects developing eportfolios for lifelong learning. Susie makes decisions at key stages about, assisted by a lifelong learning record or ePortfolio to apply for courses and jobs and to plan career decisions Can’t afford University But can apply for a Foundation Degree using my learning plan 3 years working for the Council I’ll use my City Learner Passport to apply to College and get a better job 60 30 Local College learndirect Leaving School College, travel or job? 18 70 50 40 University School Record Age 6 months QMUL: supporting online PDP for work-based learners on degree courses Learner Passport UEO: providing training for union representatives through national network of colleges CRA: work to develop technically and culturally sustainable lifelong learning record 25 21 Age 16 years Creche Nottingham: work between City and University to allow wider access to Higher Education NIIMLE: giving students access to lifelong learning record through a web portal MUSCLE: joint learner records for schools and colleges SHELL: regional student lifelong learning record

  11. ePF4LL original concept

  12. Areas covered by RIPPLL

  13. Areas studied by eP4LL

  14. Data transfer and data look-up • ePF4LL started with data transfer and moved on to data look-up via web services within the Framework • It is exploring the idea of the ‘thin’ ePF application, interacting with ePF-enabled services • Feasibility of ePF for LLL depends partly on reusability of technology – patterns: identifying analogous processes and common web services

  15. ‘Thin’ ePortfolio -- illustration

  16. Synergies • RIPPLL  Reference Model • Real world testbed • Scenarios and use cases • Reference Model  RIPPLL • Web services approach • Shibboleth: distributed access to data = far more workable model

  17. ePortfolio DevelopmentsNottingham University (and partners) • 2. Reference Model: eP4LL (e-portfolio for Lifelong Learning) • More e-portfolio use cases with methodology • Definition of common services(the generic software that links data and software together such as an orchestration service) • Contributions to technical standards development • Source of expertise for government and its agencies.

  18. Technical Achievements • Use of LEAP • Use of XSLT (extensible style sheet language transform) • Web service in receivers domain School College Web Service Parser Database ePassportfolio Data • Validation of Shibboleth

  19. Links with Assessment Reference Model (FREMA) : A Domain View Student Feedback Tracking Evidence Artefacts Learning Schedule Assessment Course Delivery Group Peer Group Multiplicity Member Marking Structuring Mock Grade book Items Transcript Validation Final Grade Self assess Mark Review

  21. Future technical developments…….. 1. Inclusion of authentication2. Creation of more generic web services (SOAP, WSDL..)
