Development of the database version of the Learning Record has been suspended. It simply became too unwieldy for students and teachers. We have returned to radical simplicity, using Microsoft Word's forms capabilities to create an easy to use, easy to transmit, portable, student-owned record of student performance and achievement. We now offer the world's simplest eportfolio (at least as far as I can tell).
No need for net access, no complex transfer and password schemes, and an application in a format anyone will be able to read (at least if they have a word processor!). I think you can see that adaptations and upgrades will be simplicity itself. Maybe this is a lesson in technology "advancement." (You can read the full manifesto here)
