Six preservice social studies teachers created electronic portfolios to examine techniques believed to promote active student engagement during a 12-week field experience. Inquiry into these practices was facilitated through embedded tutorials, assignment suggestions, and question prompts based on principles of evidential reasoning.

This paper summarizes results of the study as well as implications for future research using electronic portfolios with embedded support tools to systematically inquire into teaching practices.
