Abstract-While many educational institutions struggle to find the perfect assessment to evaluate student content knowledge, they may lose sight of the next step -lifelong learning. This paper will focus on how the creation and implementation of e-Portfolios can help to prepare senior undergraduate students to design and realize future career pathways with the use of this electronic assessment tool. In particular, this paper will illustrate how one university has changed their focus in evaluating student learning in a strategic approach to incorporate a new type of "capstone" course for business undergraduate students. As a result, there are still students leaving educational institutions not fully prepared as to how to approach the job hunting process. This particular academic tool has been helpful for the instructor to evaluate the students' abilities and skills to apply content knowledge gained from the core business administration programs, as well as prepare students for their next career endeavor.Index Terms-Assessment, e-portfolio, lifelong learning, and online learning.
Abstract-The important role of electronic markets in the realm of electronic commerce, for no one is unknown. The methods of determining the policies and rules of a market, in order to ensure its effective and optimum performance under different conditions, have attracted a lot of attentions these years. Our purpose in this paper is to clarify the existing tradeoffs through making decisions in the market on the way of achieving the targets and that how we can address these tradeoffs. These tradeoffs will be more tangible when the market is in competition with other markets and indeed in a multi-agent environment. The CAT or TAC Market Design Competition has been created as a platform for assessment of different market policies and for comparing various market strategies. In this paper, first we explain the CAT competition, and considering this platform, we will describe different parts of MySpecialist, our successful proposed market. Also conducting some experiments, we will show the remarkable performance of our market in comparison with some of the successful agents offered to previous CAT tournaments.
