Resumen de The Portfolio: an Alternative Assessment Method in Hospitality and Tourism Management Education
Many scholars have hailed the portfolio as an alternative and/or additional assessment method to traditional assessment tools. So far, portfolios have predominantly been used in professions such as the arts, nursing education, and teachers' evaluations. This paper describes the author's reflections and experiences of using the portfolio as a student assessment method in hospitality and tourism education. The benefits ranging from a resource based learning, to a deep learning approach and the development of key skills and attitudes required within the hospitality and tourism industry promote the portfolio as an effective alternative student assessment method.
