The classroom environment must evolve since our world gets more and more complex and ever changing. Students must learn to take initiative, become the owners of their own learning success and progress and be able to learn more self-directed than ever.

There are a variety of instructional choices for universities and teachers to choose from but the big question is how student engagement and ownership can both be increased and how EdTech Tools like digital portfolios can provide a solution for that.
