Abstract

Speaking course is an important part of college English teaching in China, but traditional teaching model cannot meet the new social requirement. Government and universities are developing new models of English teaching in a networked environment. Mahara, an open-source learning platform with e-Portfolio, web blog, resume and learning communities, is designed to provide users with lifelong learning, reflective learning and personalized learning. The paper analyses the benefits and challenges of incorporation of e-Portfolios into speaking course.
