“…In the initial process of creating e-portfolios students should select, from a variety of platforms, the one that best suits their needs and goals. Blogs are commonly utilised digital environments in teacher education programmes [67,68,69,70,71] as they "foster narration, RP and the expression of identities" [72]; different web-based tools are selected to create portfolios on websites [73,74]; and some programmes opt for specific e-portfolio web-based systems such as Mahara [75], or even Facebook [76]. Although technically the chosen format determines the way students present their evidence and artifacts, what matters is not the digital environment selected but the students' creative process and RP in constructing an e-portfolio.…”

This study aims to analyse the tutoring strategies that three e-tutors employed in online written interactions with two of their corresponding pre-service teachers in the first stages of the development of their e-portfolio within a master's degree in online language teaching. Building on the data collected from thirty-four documents, which include the written drafts of the initial document of their e-portfolios (the Starting Point), the final versions of this document and their email exchanges, and the study identifies six types of discursive-pedagogical strategies: Suggesting; Inquiring for reflection; Providing information and instructions; Correcting; Giving positive feedback; and Using affective moves. This article provides examples of each strategy, which illustrate the diverse ways in which the e-tutors tried to foster the pre-service language teachers' reflection. The results are relevant for a deeper understanding of the effective processes involved in e-tutoring and the development of reflective practice in the creation of an e-portfolio.

The practice of preparing e-portfolio as part of job application skills is ubiquitous nowadays. Hence, the university undergraduates need to be trained to incorporate e-portfolio as part of their job application procedures so that they stand a better chance to obtain their dream job in this competitive world. This practice is pertinent as their short of experience in job experience can be compromised in this way to highlight their ability in task accomplishments. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the perceptions of e-portfolio preparation as part of job application skills and to investigate the impact of e-portfolio practice among the final year undergraduates in the universities. The research design for this study was a quantitative method. 40 reflective journals were collected from a whole class of final year undergraduates from a public university Malaysia. Fundamentally, usefulness and challenges were two important factors that affected and impacted the final production of the e-portfolio. The participants found that e-portfolio was beneficial for them due to its usefulness in terms of five themes: learners’ ability, smoothness, attitude, motivation, and appreciation. However, there were also challenges found which were categorized under four themes: time constraint, lack of skill, accessibility, and limited software features. The study showed that despite the challenges faced in preparing the e-portfolio, the participants felt that e-portfolio has enhanced their confidence level in attending interviews in future.
