We have set up a portfolio evaluation group that you can join after registration:

  • Find the ‘Portfolio Evaluation' group under Groups I'm Not In
  • Join this group - you will now have access to it

See a view

Enter the Portfolio Evaluation group from the My Groups menu

  • You can now see a list of members and shared views.
  • You should be able to view ‘Essay Writing' and ‘Deserted', as examples of created views.

Build your portfolio

Before creating a view you will need to add some content by using My Files or My Blogs from the My Portfolio sub-menu.

  • Upload documents, images, video and other files
  • Create journals or entries to track your thoughts/learning

Share your work (Views)

Once you have some stuff to share you can create a view from the My Views menu

  • You will begin with a blank page and a menu of artefacts. Drag and drop an artefact you wish to use to one of the columns on your view page.
  • Once your view is ready you can set who has access to it - individuals, groups or friends. Try to share it back to the group.
