Why Create an ePortfolio?


Portfolio is a web-based information management tool, which allows UConn and non-UConn users (guests) the opportunity to access and share Portfolio records and other documents.  Portfolio can be thought of as an electronic file cabinet in which you can store multiple types of information by and about yourself, such as writing samples, photographs or design samples, video clips, music clips, resumes, internship experiences or mentors.  Similar to an investment portfolio the more broad the information that is stored in Portfolio, the greater the return to the user.  Creating a Portfolio encourages you to think critically about and document your thoughts and experiences related to personal information, education, career, skills, professional practices and recognition.  Once this information is entered into Portfolio, the Portfolio owner can choose to share either part or all of his or her entire Portfolio with other individuals.
