This is due to the fact that such kind of assessment mainly focus on the product rather than the process, while 90% of learning activitiy in translation course involves practice. One of the assessment technique which is higly potential to thoroughly assess both the process and quality of students’  translation is alternative assessment using e-portfolio.This paper investigates the use of e-portfolio in translation course for undergraduate students. It aims to find out the extent to which e-portfolio as an alternative assessment influences the process and quality of student’s translation.

The students’ translation test were also analyzed using comparative method to describe which aspect of the three criteria has the e-portfolio influenced students’ test score. It was discovered that 82 % students achieved higher score inacceptability. While 62% students achieved higher score in accuracy, and only 56% of students achieved higher score in readability.
