In the personal menu every user gets access to his portfolio via the link "To my binders" to his portfolio folders.

Furthermore, new portfolio folders can be created here under "Create new folders". Via the gear icon the existing folders can be moved or exported as CP. In a folder directly there are also further export options like PDF export and export to a page.

Attention there are two places under "My Folders" where new folders can be created. Once on the top right (see previous screenshot and integrated into the page. This second option offers more creation possibilities for the portfolio folders.

2 types of folders

There are basically two types of folders:

Collected binders

You can recognize the retrieved folders by the red border and the reference to the corresponding course. These folders are based on a "Portfolio 2.0 template" and are usually created by another person, usually the teacher. The collection takes place in the course via the "Portfolio Task". Alternatively, it is also possible to book and collect portfolio templates independently of the price.

As soon as a portfolio folder has been collected by the learner, it appears in the "My binders" area of the respective collector.

When a user opens this folder, he/she can select the tasks stored there (free text or form type) and edit the portfolio activities provided by storing various artefacts (texts, files, etc.) or filling in a form.

Hint

By default it is not possible to create own entries in a collected binder. But all contents of the media center can be inserted into an entry.

The "Add content" button takes you to the Portfolio Editor. Here various elements can be added and also grouped with the container element. By clicking on the plus sign, further blocks can be added and moved via drag and drop.

As an alternative to adding content, already created portfolio entries can also be linked via the "Reference content" button. Changes to the entries are then possible at all referenced points.

Self created binders 

In general, all OpenOlat users are allowed to create their own portfolio binders with sections and entries.  

Info

The possibility to create own binders can be restricted by your administrator.

You can find out how to add content to the portfolios in the chapter "Three steps to your portfolio binder" and "The Portfolio Editor".

(move the following content to a sep. file)

Contents

To every entry different contents can be added. 

The Portfolio Editor corresponds in large parts to the form editor.
Citation, video and images are added to the media center and can be edited only there. Editing is only possible as long as the entry, to which the media file is linked, is not yet published!

With the help of the html-editor a "normal" text can be added. The common formatting is possible. 

With "Insert" a math formula can be inserted as well.

Further configuration

Neben dem Tab "Überblick" enthält die Portfolio Mappe noch die Tabs "Einträge", das "Änderungsprotokoll" sowie die "Freigabe".

Timeline

With the help of the timeline the user gets a graphical overview about his activities in the portfolio. The colored points show the creation date of a section. With a "Left button click" on a point you get details about the corresponding entry. The different colors show the respective status of an entry. The timeline can be helpful if a portfolio is used over a certain time period, e.g. a semester or a year.
