Table 2 Descriptive statistics of the numbers of pre-structured forms used in the e-portfolios. For each form it is indicated if the form is envisioned to support F(eedback), R(eflection), G(oal-setting) and/or Mo(nitoring). NB: The data comprise the cumulative numbers of forms for the entire period the e-portfolio was in use. Consequently, the statistics of the first cohort (0–12 months) contain data covering up to a maximum of twelve months, whereas the third cohort (> 24 months) covers at least two years of forms
