Structure and Utility of e‐Portfolios for Reflection and Learning in Healthcare Professional Education: A Narrative Review
The educational value of e-portfolios in HPE lies less in the technology itself and more in how these tools are pedagogically designed, supported and contextualised within clinical education. For clinical educators, attention to flexibility, relevance to practice and ongoing guidance may be key to promoting meaningful reflection rather than procedural completion. Further research is needed to identify best practices and improve adaptability in different healthcare education contexts.
