In order to post, to access and set up your workspace, and to access restricted areas, you need to register as a member.

To Join the e-Portfolio

Find the Log In box (on the right). At the bottom of the box, find the link to new user?. Clicking on it brings up a registration form. Follow instructions on the form.

Please use your full name as your member name: FirstLast, no spaces! You may use a nickname for your member ID, if you prefer, but you are strongly encouraged to make your chosen password a combination of letters, numbers and other codes such as #,$,%. Ensure that your personal space remains private.

Submit the form and you will see a welcome page with a log-in button. Click this button to log in to the site using your new member account.

To Set Up your Workspace

Once you've joined, you'll have access to a folder or personal workspace. Use this space to consolidate course-related research, experiment with e-Portfolio's functionality (it's deeper than it might appear at first!).

You can add, store, and annotate images and links as well as web-authored documents and attached files for downloading.

You can make folders "private," which hides them from other site users. You can also invite other site members to contribute to private folders, which makes them handy for collaborating on team projects. But please be aware that the e-Portfolio administrator has access to them. So don't put all your MP3's here — unless they're specifically related to your portfolio! =}

At minimum, you should personalize the home page of your folder and add a front page for your own benefit or for showing to the world as a normal web page. It can serve as an archive your learning process, a repository for notes, links, references, and so on.
