Abstract
The portfolio is rapidly gaining attention in initial teacher training programs. It serves multiple uses and ends in the professional development and reflective practice of preservice teachers, and the technical advances of Web 2.0 will only increase the potential for learning opportunities. From now on, portfolio content that was formerly private territory can be generously shared. Against this background, this article provides an overview of the portfolio’s role in initial teacher training programs. The four main functions of the portfolio are addressed, followed by the advantages of the eportfolio over the paper portfolio. A working conceptual framework is then proposed for eportfolio use to support professional development in the Web 2.0 age. To provide a practical application for initial teacher training, we conclude with a presentation of Eduportfolio, an eportfolio that effectively taps the potential of Web 2.0.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
