Service Learning is based on professional knowledge to assist students to achieve affective educational objective by service and reflection. For example, college students can further experience what they have learnt by serving as voluntary tutors, through reflection in tutoring services. However, voluntary tutors need educational training to be able to handle various situations during the tutoring process. Therefore, how to conduct effective training and assessment for voluntary tutors has become a research problem. As e-learning becomes popular, the assessment of e-learning has attracted a lot of attention. Portfolio assessment is focused on files, works and reports produced in the learning process. Common web-based portfolio assessment is based on data recorded by learning management systems, such as browsing time and usage. However, these data cannot reflect how tutors ask for help and solve problems in the training process. In addition, the rising of cloud computing results in the trend of cloud learning. Hence, organizing and analyze heterogeneous portfolio data on cloud has become an important issue. In Web 2.0 environments, users usually annotate web resources by free-form tags, which are collectively called folksonomy. These tags help search and share resources, and reflect their viewpoints on the resources. The idea of this project is to analyzing learning portfolio using folksonomic tags. The main advantage is that the collecting of tags is easy. In contrast, it is difficult to organize a large amount of tags from heterogeneous sources. The expected results of this one-year project are listed as follows: . designing and implementing a method to organize tags suitable for cloud environments; . collecting and analyzing tags during the tutor training process; and . conducting portfolio assessment for tutor training. The proposed approach is expected to evaluate the other related project from a different viewpoint. As part of a “Volunteer University”, this project will support volunteer train ing of Asia University and other universities.
