Integration with degree-specific courses will promote the archival andvisibility of curricular milestones – associated with clearly articulated student outcomes.Multiple student touchpoints strengthens the potential positive impact of the electronic portfolio.Project Objectives of Phase I:  Create the framework for an electronic portfolio
