Objective: This study aims to understand the student's view of the reflective portfolio as an assessment method. Methodology: This is a qualitative bibliographic review, including articles published between 2012 and 2022, on the digital platforms Literatura Latinoamericana y del Caribe en Ciencias de la Salud (LILACS) and Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), of national and international articles. Results: 5 scientific articles were chosen that mentioned the reflective portfolio as a means of evaluation, applied in the health area, focusing on the student's view in relation to the reflective portfolio evaluation method. Discussion: Researchers point to self-criticism/reflective criticism as the main axis of student results. They tend to encourage reflective practice, reflection in their narratives. Researchers affirm the evaluative nature of the reflective portfolio as a self-evaluation strategy. They highlight the intertwining of theory and practice experienced as a second point, highlighting the level of learning, encouraging reflective practice, helping to organize learning. They use PR as an instrument for building knowledge. Conclusion: It is a tool that promotes learning through assessment, encourages active learning and provides students with independence.
