ePortfolios

Closure of UWindsor ePortfolio platform

Unfortunately, we have been informed that iCampus21 will no longer support our hosting of WordPress as of August 31st, 2025. This means that as of August 31st, 2025 all content hosted on UWindsor.icampus21.com will cease to exist. If you wish to keep your site, you will have to move it to another platform before that date.

We have attached a document that will help you explore some options for hosting your site and has instructions for exporting and importing your content to these other platforms. We will also be having regular drop-in support sessions starting on Tuesday April 15th, for those who need help. These sessions will be hybrid so people can come to CEI 1232 or log in via Teams. See below for session information and join links (more will be added over time). Of course, you may want to explore other options as well. If you have questions or concerns please email openlearning@uwindsor.ca.

Drop-in support sessions:

All sessions are hybrid. You can show up to CEI 1232 or attend via the Teams link

ePortfolios at UWindsor

Beginning in Fall 2013, the Office of Open Learning initiated a pilot project in collaboration with some of our 2013 Open Learning Grant recipients to introduce ePortfolios (electronic portfolios) to the University of Windsor community. The initial pilot included a number of potential tools to support the development of ePortfolios, with Wordpress eventually being chosen as the most suitable tool for most ePortfolio needs.

ePortfolios allow students to capture and curate the wide range of learning opportunities they are exposed to both inside and out of the classroom during their UWindsor career. Portfolios provide students with their own space to display their creative work, including artefacts that demonstrate to potential employers and others what students are capable of. They also provide a space for students to reflect on and articulate their learning in meaningful ways.
