Abstract
The use of electronic portfolios in higher education has significantly increased in the last few years, especially in the United States of America, Canada, Europe and Australia rather than the Arabian universities. Electronic portfolios have a greater potential to alter higher education at its very core than any other technology. Both teachers and students can develop their own Electronic Portfolios; for teachers can adapt a new standardized evaluation methodology instead of traditional exams, while students can develop and share their skills life long.
