Although e-Portfolio is acknowledged as one of the powerful pedagogical practices that enhance learning in higher education (HE), not much is known about the types of social media (SM) utilized as e-Portfolios and the benefits for students. This literature analysis, using directed content analysis, aims to explore the above vacuum. The research questions in this study are: (1) In what ways do the SM as e-Portfolios benefit students in HE? (2) To what extent are the benefits of SM as e-Portfolios comparable to those of conventional e-Portfolios? and (3) What are the drawbacks that practitioners and researchers need to be concerned with? Findings indicate that blogs are the most popular SM used as e-Portfolios to support learning, followed by social networking sites and collaborative projects. The study yields 13 advantages and 12 drawbacks when SM is manipulated as e-Portfolios. These findings conclude that the use of SM as e-Portfolios has a great potential in supporting students’ learning and development by providing an environment for them to learn meaningfully from their experiences and engage in critical reflections and dialogues that allow them to gain new knowledge and valuable insights and thus, improve their skills. A pedagogical framework for the planning and implementation of SM as e-Portfolios is suggested based on the findings and aims of the papers that were reviewed.

尽管电子档案袋被认为是增强高等教育 (HE) 学习的强大教学实践之一，但人们对用作电子档案袋的社交媒体 (SM) 类型及其对学生的好处知之甚少。本文献分析采用定向内容分析，旨在探索上述真空。本研究的研究问题是：(1) SM 作为电子档案袋以何种方式使 HE 学生受益？(2) SM 作为电子档案袋的优势在多大程度上与传统电子档案袋的优势相媲美？(3) 从业人员和研究人员需要关注的缺点是什么？调查结果表明，博客是最流行的 SM，用作支持学习的电子档案袋，其次是社交网站和协作项目。当 SM 被用作电子投资组合时，该研究产生了 13 个优点和 12 个缺点。这些调查结果得出结论，将 SM 作为电子档案袋的使用在支持学生的学习和发展方面具有巨大的潜力，因为它为学生提供了一个环境，使他们能够从自己的经验中进行有意义的学习，并参与批判性反思和对话，从而使他们能够获得新知识和新知识。宝贵的见解，从而提高他们的技能。根据所审查论文的发现和目标，建议了一个用于规划和实施 SM 作为电子档案袋的教学框架。这些调查结果得出结论，将 SM 作为电子档案袋的使用在支持学生的学习和发展方面具有巨大的潜力，因为它为学生提供了一个环境，使他们能够从自己的经验中进行有意义的学习，并参与批判性反思和对话，从而使他们能够获得新知识和新知识。宝贵的见解，从而提高他们的技能。根据所审查论文的发现和目标，建议了一个用于规划和实施 SM 作为电子档案袋的教学框架。这些调查结果得出结论，将 SM 作为电子档案袋的使用在支持学生的学习和发展方面具有巨大的潜力，因为它为学生提供了一个环境，使他们能够从自己的经验中进行有意义的学习，并参与批判性反思和对话，从而使他们能够获得新知识和新知识。宝贵的见解，从而提高他们的技能。根据所审查论文的发现和目标，建议了一个用于规划和实施 SM 作为电子档案袋的教学框架。
