WorkWhile the value of a professional portfolio in other fields has been realized for some time,in engineering education, the benefits of a portfolio have only been recently recognized.It is known that the process of creating a portfolio encourages students to select, reflecton, and showcase best practice examples of their own work; as a complete product, theportfolio serves to display project experience with potential employers and colleagues,while they initiate their professional career.2 As such, the process of portfolio creationfosters effective educational practices of reflective judgment as advocated by King andKitchener4 and self-authorship recommended by Baxter Magolda.5 The possibility ofteaching and assessing ABET professional skills, and
