This article is desk top research that reviewed several related literature. The study aimed at determining portfolio development as a method of learning, assessment and evaluation in clinical Nursing Education in Kenya. Students perceive portfolios as a representation of gathered and presented hard evidence and specific data about ones’ learning. The study identified challenges in development of portfolios as; reluctance of the student to engage in self reflection and time-consuming aspect of compiling, lack of writing skills and ethical issues.
