To examine the perspective of a student in EPortfolio, we created an online survey that was sent to three different classes of the "Digital Technologies in the Vet" course. The survey was a qualitative questionnaire with ten open questions, requesting the respondents with statements on issues such as challenges and possibilities of eportefolio, necessary competences to create an ephortefolio, and its own definition of the "eportefolio" concept. Two of the classes had completed the autumn course of 2016 and the last class was the current class in the spring of 2017. We send a link to the online survey to the 48 students in the three classes. Three emails were returned because the directions that the students had provided were no longer in use. Of the following 45 possible responses, we receive 15, which is equivalent to a 33% response rate. We had expected more, but it turned out that the 15 responses were distributed relatively equitably in the three classes. We do not argue that this small survey is a representative sampling of all students who have participated in this course, much less representative of the experience of working with EPortfolio for adult students in continuing education in general. However, from the statements that respondents provide in the survey, we find a series of reflections and perspectives relevant in earship, as well as a challenge and the possibility of empowering the role of the teacher, and to train the learning processes of the students.
