How do I use collections to structure my ePortfolio?

Updated on

Collections are folders that can be used to organize items that belong together in the My items tab.

My Items - Test met student view - 2 and 6 more pages - Profile 1 - Microsoft​ Edge
  1. Go to the My items tab in your ePortfolio.
  2. Click New Collection.
New Collection - Brightspace (e)Portfolio - Hogeschool Rotterdam - Google Chrome
  1. Give the collection a name.
  2. Add a description to the collection (optional).
  3. Click Save.

A screen will appear where settings can be changed for the collection. Scroll to Items in Collection.

Edit Collection - Brightspace (e)Portfolio - Hogeschool Rotterdam - Google Chrome
  • Click Add to Collection to add an item.
  1. Click Artefacts, Presentations, Reflections or Learning Objectives to add items from your ePortfolio.
  2. Click Tag List to add items from a specific Tag list.
  1. Click on the X to remove an item from the collection.
  2. Click Save and Close.

Are you assembling a collection with the intention to share it from your portfolio at a later point? Sharing collectios is discouraged, because files from the collection cannot always be opened by the receiver. If you do want to share multiple files, use a presentation.
