Summary/Abstract: In this paper we aim to capture the trends of using the digital portfolio as a form of learning and evaluation of students.The portfolio, as a modern approach to teaching assessment strategies, has gained popularity in the activity of highereducation. As expected, postmodern accents of digitization lead to the transfer of the classic, printed portfolio into theelectronic portfolio (also known as e-Folio, e-portfolio, E-Folio, or online portfolio).In order to validate the students' willingness to work with digital portfolios, we asked a short online questionnaire, with4 questions that focused mainly on the working experience of students on these portfolios, either classic or digital. Anumber of 310 students in their second and third year of study answered the questionnaire. The respondents are currentlystudents of several faculties at Babes-Bolyai University. We believe that the openness of students to whatever involvesusing technology and devices is very large and we should take advantage of it.
