Creating Portfolios and Portfolio Artifacts in Abre People

Portfolios can be used to display a wide variety of student work. By design, they impose very little structure, allowing the user to display and communicate their accomplishments as they see fit.

Definitions

• Portfolio: A container of artifacts. Portfolios usually have a theme defined by the student.
• Artifact: An object in a portfolio. Artifacts can be reflections, images, videos, attachments, etc.
• Student Success Artifact: A type of artifact that is tagged as part of a district’s “Student Success / POG” framework.

Why Use Portfolios?

Portfolios are an excellent way to capture growth over time. Portfolios can be shared with stakeholders. Portfolios can also measure growth towards district-wide goals (e.g., Portrait of a Graduate).

Who Can Have Portfolios?

Staff and students can have portfolios. A staff member could collect their artifacts for license renewal in a portfolio.

How Can I Access a Portfolio?

You can access portfolios via the People App and the Students App as part of the Student360.
