[Air-L] Invitation to Participate: Extended Deadline

[Yancey, Kathleen]

Apologies for cross-postings, but please do circulate widely . . . 

Colleagues and friends~~
 
We are *still* pleased to issue a call to participate in the 7th cohort of the 
Inter/National Coaltion for Electronic Portfolio Research 
<ncepr.org>, an international group focusing on the learning 
fostered by electronic portfolios and documentation of same. You 
can find the application here: http://bit.ly/cohort7app.
 
This particular cohort will focus on developing criteria congruent 
with digital texts, social networking practices, and eportfolios 
themselves. We believe this work will help us develop assessments 
responding to the affordances of eportfolios, and we believe it 
may be helpful to institutions working on various forms of 
accreditation.

***Because some institutions found preparing a Cohort VII application over the holidays very difficult
and have asked for extensions, we will welcome applications through February 13, 2012. 
We hope that this extra month will support institutions that needed extra time to complete 
their applications. 


Selected teams will be notified by February 20, 2012.

I'm happy to take questions offlist, and I hope you'll consider 
joining us.
