Creating

This video provides instructions for basic usage of ePortfolio.  It includes uploading and tagging artifacts and adding comments.


Tagging

When you upload files, you may tag them with keywords or descriptive labels. Tags can organize, describe, and help you locate the artifacts in your ePortfolio. Your program may have already established a set of tags for you to use.


Collections

Collections are groups of artifacts. For help creating collections, see Creating New Collections.

You may add artifacts to a collection either individually or by creating a tag list that will automatically populate the collection. For help adding items to a collection with a tag list, see Add Items to a Collection Using a Tag List.


Sharing

You may share ePortfolio artifacts with professors or classmates at Saint Joseph’s College. For help sharing artifacts, see Sharing Items with Internal Users.


Presentations

Presentations let you compile ePortfolio artifacts into a web project to showcase your achievements.
