Meaningful Online Learning with e-Portfolio: University Students’ Perspectives

Emergency online classes can put students’ engagement at risk as the learning setting limits interaction, motivation, and understanding of the lesson, unlike the preCovid-19 times, when students can meet their instructors and peers face-to-face. Consequently, an innovative approach is needed to achieve successful and meaningful learning. This study seeks to Figure out students’ perspectives on e-portfolio projects. The researcher set out this topic based on a pre-research showing students’ low performance and engagement, hence the use of classroom action research (CAR) as the research method. After one cycle was conducted, the researcher focused on revealing students’ perceptions of the e-portfolio project. The survey responses indicated a successful implementation of meaningful learning: the students exhibited active participation, critical and creative thinking, problem-solving skill, and teamwork. The project also proved that students were engaged in the learning process while utilizing digital technology.
