Kathleen Blake Yancey, the Kellogg W. Hunt Professor of English at Florida State University, directs the graduate program in Rhetoric and Composition Studies. She co-directs the International Coalition on Electronic Portfolio Research, which has brought together over 40 institutions worldwide to document the learning that takes place inside and around electronic portfolios.

Yancey is also the author, editor or co-editor of over 65 chapters and refereed articles and ten books, several of which focus on reflection, portfolios, and/or assessment. Most notable in this regard are Portfolios in the Writing Classroom (1992), Assessing Writing across the Curriculum (1997), Electronic Portfolios (2001). In October, Stylus Publishing will release her co-edited volume (with Barbara Cambridge and Darren Cambridge), Electronic Portfolios 2.0, which documents the electronic portfolio projects on many campuses, in general education programs, and in various disciplinary contexts.

If there is a theme in her work, it’s the teaching and learning that is fostered through the reflective activities we see in both print and digital portfolios.
