ePORTFOLIO TUTORIAL

CREATING A PORTFOLIO In the ePortfolio space, you create portfolios where you can collect your work. This might include images, videos, documents, presentations, transcripts, web links, and even audio recordings. You can create a portfolio for many reasons, but at Capella, the most common types of portfolios are:

• Course Assignments: An assignment requires you to create or collect artifacts that are placed in a portfolio.

• Dissertations: The portfolio is used as a place to save and organize work and throughout your program that might be helpful for your dissertation.

• Capstones: The portfolio is used as a place to display work that demonstrates completion of licensure or capstone requirements.

• Professional Use: Work is collected in a portfolio for use in professional development or to be used during job searches. A link to the portfolio can then be added to a resume or a LinkedIn profile to showcase the work.

Click Create Your First Portfolio or Create Portfolio to set up a new ePortfolio.

ePORTFOLIO TUTORIAL

On the Create Portfolio window, enter a Title and description.

The portfolio page will display, ready for you to add your work.

PRIVACY SETTINGS One thing you should be aware of is how privacy works on ePortfolio. There are two settings that can be applied to any of your portfolios: Private and Public. By default, the privacy setting is set to initially set to Private.

• Private means that if you share the link for that portfolio, anyone who has the link can view it.

• Public means that anyone with Internet access could potentially view your portfolio simply by conducting a search using a keyword that happens to be included in your portfolio. The person searching would not need the link to access your portfolio.

It is highly recommended that you keep your privacy settings Private. Note: When you access the privacy settings, you will notice that in addition to the Private or Public Portfolio visibility settings, additional settings are listed. These features have not yet been completely instituted by Capella at this time, so do not make any changes unless requested to by your instructor.

Add a Title and a description or purpose for your new ePortfolio.

Click Next.

The Edit Page: Add Work

On the Edit page, you can easily edit the title and description of your portfolio. The page is also where you would add content using the Drag and Drop Your Files area, or the Add Work tab on the sidebar to the right.

The most common ways to add content to an ePortfolio are to drag and drop your files, to upload files, or to add them from the My Pathbrite Library. These options are covered below.

Select Industry

Sometimes, while you are working with portfolios, a window will display that will ask “What Industry is this Portfolio made for?” The window prompts you to select an industry. This feature is not being used by Capella, so you can dismiss the screen.

Edit the title and description.

Drag and drop your files into this area.

Content can also be added using the Add Work tab.

Click the X, or click Done to dismiss this window.

Add Files to My Library

There may be times when you want to upload files to ePortfolio, but you do not want to place them in a specific portfolio yet. This can be done by adding the files to the ePortfolio library. The library can always be accessed from the My Account drop-down menu in the upper right corner of any ePortfolio screen.

When My Library displays, you may find that there are already files there. This is because anytime you add a file to a portfolio it is added to the library.

Click My Account and then select My Library.

Click Add to Library.

This can be done through creating and applying categories, as well as adding titles, tags, and descriptions to individual files. You can even edit how your portfolios look to make them more visually appealing and easier to sort through. If the portfolio you want to edit is not already open, you can access your portfolios from your My Profile page by clicking on the portfolio.

From the Portfolio page, go to the Edit page to add content to your ePortfolio.

Click the portfolio image, or the title of the portfolio, to open it up.

Tags

Tags are terms or keywords that are added to the file to make it easier to find by browsing or searching. In the Edit pane on the right side of the screen, when you click in the Tags field, ePortfolio displays several preset tags that you can select, or you can create a new tag. You can add multiple tags to a single file.

Edit Categories

In ePortfolio, adding a category and assigning it to a file is another way to organize your work and will help you quickly find and share your portfolios. Note: If you have worked in the older version of ePortfolio, you can think of categories as similar to how folders were used. One common use for categories might be for your specialization outcomes. By creating a category for each outcome in your specialization program, and then assigning the appropriate category to each file in ePortfolio, you can easily find the files you need to demonstrate competency when you are working on a Capstone course. To edit the categories, select one of your portfolios and go to the Style & Settings tab of the Edit Page.

The Edit Categories window will display.

Click Style & Settings.

Click Edit Categories.

Click Categories.
