MOSEP - More self esteem with my ePortfolio

http://www.wikieducator.org/MOSEP

MOSEP - More self esteem with my ePortfolio - MOSEP is a European project, funded by the European commission (Leonardo da Vinci). The objective is to develop a set of ePortfolio Tutorials for initial teacher-trainers, in-service teacher-trainers and vocational counsellors to use to help to prepare teachers and trainers to work with learners who are using ePortfolios.

Personal comment: I have not seen this, but I hear it is really quite a step forward, has some neat drag and drop, and is another step towards being a good usable solution. --Derekc 13:43, 17 July 2008 (NZST)
