Abstract
The global pandemic pushed universities to adopt online platforms for academic continuity, but capturing clinical practice evidence was challenging. ePortfolio pedagogy emerged as a solution, integrating technology, reflection, and assessment to support nursing students' development. This approach enhances digital literacy, lifelong learning, and professional growth by facilitating communication and collaboration. A PhD-funded study at Queen’s University Belfast, using a mixed methods sequential explanatory design, explores the understanding and impact of ePortfolios on nursing students, lecturers, and practice staff. The study, ethically approved by the Faculty of Medicine, Health & Life Sciences, aims to evaluate ePortfolio technology's effect on curriculum delivery and student performance. Initial results are expected in 2026, focusing on its impact within nursing and higher education.
