Navigating to the Portfolio

Click the Portfolio tab to see your current portfolio and make any changes.

Your portfolio will show tiles labelled Timeline where any reflections or resources you add to the Portfolio will be listed in chronological order. The Goals tab will allow you to set up goals. The Files tab will show folders for the different components and subjects of your academic programme.

You can add resources and reflections to your Portfolio Timeline via Add Evidence of Learning and choose the type of resources which you would like to upload.

You can add Goals via Portfolio > Goals > Add New Goal. In the Goals section, you can check off goals by ticking the box next to the goals, Show Completed Goals would then show you all the Goals which you have checked off.

You can share links to, star or export every entry on your timeline via the 3 dot expansion menu. This can be useful if you need to highlight specific term goals for example or want to share a reflection you added recently with your advisor. 

Reviewing Files

File submissions from Class Tasks & Year Group Deadlines will also appear under the Files tab, categorized into specific subject or core programme folders. This provides a consolidated location of the students work from their various classes & year groups.

Note: student submissions to tasks & deadlines using Google Docs do not appear on the student portfolio.

Students and Teachers can also add Files directly to the Personal Files using the Add New File button. All other forms of Portfolio item types are disabled in the Files tab.
