There are a number of ways of evaluating a student portfolio. You can assign numerical values to the different pieces, with varying point levels depending upon completeness, accuracy, originality, etc. You can also evaluate the portfolio as a student-selected collection of pieces that show how he or she moved from initial understanding of concepts to more complete understanding. In those cases, it is advisable to ask the student to explain, either orally or in writing, why these pieces were chosen and what they show. You can then link the portfolio score or grade to both the portfolio itself and the explanation for its contents.
